Intercropping of short- and tall-stature maize decreases lodging risk without yield penalty at high planting density

Intercropping of short- and tall-stature maize decreases lodging risk without yield penalty at high planting density

High planting density of maize usually results in higher grain yield but also raises the risk of lodging. Cultivar intercropping had been proved to improve yield and stress resistance. Thus, we aimed to coordinate grain yield and lodging resistance of maize under high planting density by intercroppi...
