Influence of plant architecture on maize physiology and yield in the Heilonggang River valley

The size and distribution of leaf area determine light interception in a crop canopy and influence overall photosynthesis and yield. Optimized plant architecture renders modern maize hybrids (Zea mays L.) more productive, owing to their tolerance of high plant densities. To determine physiological a...
