Abstract: Abstract In semi-arid production regions having a high inter-annual rainfall variability, farmers use low plant densities, that promote tillering in maize (Zea mays L.). Tillering in maize is a scarcely researched trait, even though it… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2022.988055
Abstract: Photosynthetic rate (Pn) and photosynthetic nitrogen use efficiency (PNUE) are the two important factors affecting the photosynthesis and nutrient utilization of plant leaves. However, the effect of N fertilization combined with foliar application of Fe… read more here.
