PLANT DENSITY AND NITROGEN SUPPLY AFFECT THE GRAIN-FILLING PARAMETERS OF MAIZE KERNELS LOCATED IN DIFFERENT EAR POSITIONS

Plant Density and Nitrogen Supply Affect the Grain-Filling Parameters of Maize Kernels Located in Different Ear Positions

Although yield output of maize (Zea mays L.) has improved markedly over the last century, procedures for improving the grain-filling process remain elusive.Our aim in this study was to relate grain-filling variation in maize (including kernels in apical and middle positions in the ears) to plant density and nitrogen (N) application rate using a cro

The RNA silencing pathway: the bits and pieces that matter.

Cellular pathways are generally proposed on the basis of available experimental knowledge.The proposed pathways, however, may be inadequate to describe the phenomena they are supposed to explain.For instance, by means of concise mathematical models we are able to reveal shortcomings in the current description Games of the pathway of RNA silencing.T
