Responses of Physiological Traits and Grain Yield to Short Heat Stress during Different Grain-Filling Stages in Summer Maize

Maize kernel growth is sensitive to heat stress, which is predicted to result in yield loss. However, the response of maize to short-term heat stress during different kernel-growth stages is still not clear. A 3-year field experiment, included two heat-stress treatments (LSH, lag-stage heat stress;...
