Targeted suppression of gibberellin biosynthetic genes ZmGA20ox3 and ZmGA20ox5 produces a short stature maize ideotype

Tomasz Paciorek et al.

Summary: This article describes a method for developing a short stature maize by suppressing the gibberellin biosynthetic pathway. This method reduces the height of maize plants, making it more suitable for commercial production.

Short-stature maize reduced wind damage during the 2020 midwestern derecho, improving yields and greenhouse gas outcomes

Ty J. Barten et al.

Summary: As climate change impacts increase, future agricultural systems need to be more resilient. Severe thunderstorms with high velocity straight line winds are expected to become more frequent. A study found that short-stature maize hybrids had less lodging damage compared to tall hybrids, resulting in higher yields and preventing significant economic and environmental losses.

The central role of ear nitrogen uptake in maize endosperm cell and kernel weight determination during the lag period

Lia B. Olmedo Pico et al.

Summary: The study indicates that nitrogen significantly affects kernel weight in maize by impacting endosperm cell number, with low nitrogen treatments limiting kernel weight gains during the early post-silking stage. Higher nitrogen availability, regardless of timing and plant density, increases final kernel weight by enhancing individual kernel sink capacity through gains in endosperm cell number during lag-period development.
