Genotypic Differences in Grain Protein, Oil and Starch Content and Yield of Maize (Zea mays L.) under Elevated Plant Density

A. M. M. Al-Naggar, M. M. M. Atta, M. A. Ahmed & A. S. M. Younis · Asian Research Journal of Agriculture · 2016

The use of high plant density (PD) along with tolerant genotypes to high PD would overcome the negative impacts of competition stresses and lead to maximizing maize yield of grain (GYPH), protein (PYPH), oil (OYPH) and starch (SYPH) from the unit land area (ha). The main objectiv...
