Spatiotemporal Profiling of the Pathogen Complex Causing Common Bean Root Rot in China
Published 2025-07-01Get full textRoot rot, a globally devastating disease of common bean (<i>Phaseolus vulgaris</i> L.), remains a major constraint on bean production across China. Despite its agricultural impact, the pathogen complex associated with this disease has been poorly characterized in most provinces. To addre...

Evaluation and analysis of intraspecific competition in maize: A case study on plant density experiment
Published 2018-10-01Get full textIntraspecific competition is a common phenomenon in agricultural production, and maize is one of the most sensitive grass species to intraspecific competition due to its low tillering ability. This study evaluated and analyzed intraspecific competition in maize, and screened competitive indices that...

SPEIPM-based research on drought impact on maize yield in North China Plain
Published 2015-04-01Get full textThe calculation method of potential evapotranspiration (PET) was improved by adopting a more reliable PET estimate based on the Penman-Monteith equation into the standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) in this study (SPEIPM). This improvement increased the applicability of SPEI in...

Research progress on reduced lodging of high-yield and -density maize
Published 2017-12-01Get full textIncreasing plant density is an effective way to enhance maize yield, but often increases lodging rate and severity, significantly elevating the risk and cost of maize production. Therefore, lodging is a major factor restricting future increases in maize yield through high-density planting. This pape...

Difference in corn kernel moisture content between pre- and post-harvest
Published 2021-07-01Get full textThe harvest method of shelling corn (Zea mays L.) kernels in the field decreases labor costs associated with transporting, drying and threshing the crop. However, it was previously found that the kernel moisture content increased after field harvest, which decreased the value of corn kernels. To ide...

Kernel crack characteristics for X-ray computed microtomography (μCT) and their relationship with the breakage rate of maize varieties
Published 2020-11-01Get full textThe most significant problem of maize grain mechanical harvesting quality in China at present is the high grain breakage rate (BR). BR is often the key characteristic that is measured to select hybrids desirable for mechanical grain harvesting. However, conventional BR evaluation and measurement met...

Reducing maize yield gap by matching plant density and solar radiation
Published 2021-02-01Get full textYield gap exists because the current attained actual grain yield cannot yet achieve the estimated yield potential. Chinese high yield maize belt has a wide span from east to west which results in different solar radiations between different regions and thus different grain yields. We used multi-site...

Key indicators affecting maize stalk lodging resistance of different growth periods under different sowing dates
Published 2020-10-01Get full textThe accurate evaluation of maize stalk lodging resistance in different growth periods enables timely management of lodging risks and ensures stable and high maize yields. Here, we established five different sowing dates to create different conditions for maize growth. We evaluated the effects of the...

Dynamics of maize grain drying in the high latitude region of Northeast China
Published 2022-02-01Get full textA high grain moisture content at harvest has been an important problem in the high latitude region of Northeast China, and it is closely related to the genotypes of varieties, local meteorological factors and planting management. However, delayed harvest at a low temperature could not effectively re...

The effect of solar radiation change on the maize yield gap from the perspectives of dry matter accumulation and distribution
Published 2021-02-01Get full textThe uneven distribution of solar radiation is one of the main reasons for the variations in the yield gap between different regions in China and other countries of the world. In this study, different solar radiation levels were created by shading and the yield gaps induced by those levels were analy...
