Relative Yields of First (Apical) and Second Ears of Semi-Prolific Southern Corn Hybrids
1960
Bauman, Loyal F.
SynopsisMost of the yield variations resulted from differences in second-ear yield when a significant number of second ears were produced. First-ear yield was relatively unaffected by environment unless the crop was so poor that few second ears developed. Variations in second-ear yields resulted primarily from differences in number rather than size. The plants tended to develop a fullsized first ear, and any additional yield came largely from second ears.
