Nitrogen rates and plant density interactions enhance radiation interception, yield, and nitrogen use efficiencies of maize
The contributions of the different leaf layers to maize yields identified as middle leaf > lower leaf > upper leaf, where the vertical photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) in the canopy gradually decreases. We hypothesized that the allocation of more PAR and nitrogen (N) to the hi...
