Boll characteristics and yield of cotton in relation to the canopy microclimate under varying plant densities in an arid area

Planting density affects crop microclimate and intra-plant competition, playing an important role on yield formation and resource use, especially in areas where the cotton is grown at relatively high plant densities in Xinjiang, China. However, more studies are needed to examine how the change in pl...
