Lodging is one of the causes maize (Zea mays L.) production losses worldwide and, at least, resistance to stalk lodging has been positively correlated with strength. In order elucidate putative relationship between cell wall, strength and resistance, twelve inbreds varying in rind penetration were characterized for wall composition structure. Stepwise multiple regression indicates that H lignin...

Lodging is a major constraint to increasing the global productivity of maize (Zea Maize L.). The objectives this paper are to: i) describe model for stem and root lodging in maize, ii) calibrate anchorage strength component model, iii) evaluate model’s applicability by assessing its capacity explain effects crop husbandry on risk iv) investigate potential further develop predict at an early eno...

Lodging is one of the typical abiotic adversities during paddy rice growth. In addition to affecting photosynthesis, it can seriously damage crop growth and development, such as reducing quality hindering automated harvesting. It is, therefore, imperative accurately in good time acquire crop-lodging areas for yield prediction, agricultural insurance claims, disaster-management decisions. Howeve...
