Combating Dual Challenges in Maize Under High Planting Density: Stem Lodging and Kernel Abortion

High plant density is considered a proficient approach to increase maize production in countries with limited agricultural land; however, this creates a high risk of stem lodging and kernel abortion by reducing the ratio of biomass to the development of the stem and ear. Stem lodging and kernel abor...
