Research investigates how environmental factors influence grain weight in maize, indicating implications for crop yield optimization.
Grain weight of maize is determined by the sink establishment, grain filling rate and filling duration. Environmental and cultivating factors (such as temperature, water, fertilizer and plant growth regulators) can influence such process by regulating the carbohydrate metabolism and hormone level in the plants. The key point of further study on grain weight was discussed.
