The increase in area for corn production in eastern Canada has stimulated the search for improvements in corn management practices to obtain higher yields. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids, plant population density, rates of fertilization and irrigation on grain yield. A field experiment was conducted on a Chicot sandy clay loam soil in Quebec from 1984 to 1986. Corn attained grain yields of 10.9–15.2 Mg ha−1. These yields were attained only when all management inputs were at optimum levels. No single hybrid was superior over the 3-yr-period. High plant population densities, if not accompanied by other inputs, decreased yields. In moist, cooler years, effects of management factors were reduced, and only high plant population densities seemed to increase production. High rates of fertilization increased yields only when other management levels were high.Key words: Population density, irrigation, fertilization, hybrid, Zea mays, grain

RESUMO - O manejo adequado da adubação nitrogenada para atenuar efeitos da perda de área foliar é uma soluçãopouco explorada. Portanto, objetivou-se avaliar, em campo, o efeito da reaplicação de nitrogênio e intensidade dedesfolha em diferentes fases fenológicas sobre a incidência de grãos ardidos e o desempenho produtivo do milho. Odelineamento experimental foi em blocos casualizados, com quatro repetições, em esquema fatorial 2x7x4+2, sendo,a reaplicação de N em cobertura (0 e 40 kg ha-1), os estádios fenológicos de desfolha (V2, V4, V6, V10, R1, R3 e R5),as intensidades de desfolha (25, 50, 75 e 100%) e dois controles adicionais (0% de desfolha com e sem a reaplicaçãode N). As avaliações realizadas foram percentagem de grãos ardidos, massa de 100 grãos e produtividade de grãos. Osdados foram submetidos à análise de variância, testes de Tukey, Dunnett e regressão até 2º grau (p0,05). A reaplicaçãode nitrogênio após a desfolha atenua os efeitos desse estresse na massa e no rendimento total de grãos, com maiorefetividade quando ocorre nos estádios vegetativos. O prejuízo ao desempenho produtivo em razão da desfolha éacentuado quando ocorre no florescimento e enchimento de grãos, pois desequilibra a relação fonte-dreno. A desfolhaem estádios iniciais proporciona maior intensidade de grãos ardidos nas plantas de milho.Palavras-chave: Adubação nitrogenada, Área foliar, Estádios fenológicos, Zea mays L.REAPPLICATION OF NITROGEN AS MITIGATIONTO THE DEFOLIATION EFFECT AT STAGES OF MAIZEABSTRACT - The proper management of nitrogen fertilization to mitigate the effects of the loss of leaf area ispoorly explored. Therefore, the present study evaluated the effect of nitrogen reapplication and defoliation intensity atdifferent phenological stages on the incidence of rot grains and corn production performance. The experimental designwas a randomized complete block with four replications, in a 2x7x4 + 2 factorial scheme, with the reapplication of Ntopdressed (0 and 40 kg ha-1), the defoliation stages (V2, V4, V6, V10, R1, R3 and R5), defoliation intensities (25, 50, 75and 100%) and two additional controls (0% defoliation with and without reapplication of N). Percentage of rot grains,mass of 100 grains and grain yield were evaluated. Data were subjected to analysis of variance, Tukey’s, Dunnett’s testsand regression up to grade 2 (p 0.05). Reapplication of nitrogen after defoliation attenuates the effects of this stress onthe mass and the total yield of grains, with greater effectiveness in the vegetative stages. The damage to the productiveperformance due to defoliation was accentuated when occurred at the flowering and grain filling as it unbalancesthe source-drain relation. Depletion in the early stages caused higher occurrence of grain burned in maize plants.Keywords: Nitrogen fertilization, Leaf area, Phenological stages, Zea mays L.

Corn (Zea mays L.)  is one of the versatile crop which is used as food, feed, fodder and in recent past as a source of bio-fuel. The sub-tropical climate is very favorable for corn cultivation. Traditionally, corn was grown in South and Southeast Asia primarily as a subsistence food crop. Worldwide it is being cultivated in over 170 countries representing an area of 185 million ha with a productivity of 5.62 t ha-1 (FAO, 2017). Out of world corn production of 1037 million MT, SAARC countries comprising of Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka represent 3.2 % with a productivity of 3.8 t ha-1. Among SAARC countries, the highest productivity of 6.9 t ha-1 is reported in Bangladesh. Corn can be an important renewable source for bioethanol production. This research was carried out to evaluate Bangladeshi Corn for optimum bioethanol production. A 100 g of corn flour was mixed with 300 ml distilled water was blended and sterilized. The experiment was conducted with a temperature of 30 oC, pH 6.0 and 20 % sugar concentration. For alcoholic fermentation, 200 ml yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae CCD) was added to make the total volume 500 ml. Addition of small amount of 1750 unit α-amylase enzyme to the substrate solution was found to enhance the fermentation process quicker. After 6-days of incubation time corn produces 63.57 ml of ethanol with 13.33 % (v/v) purity. The non-filtered solution produces comparatively more ethanol (63.57 ml with 13.33 % purity) than the filtered solution (53.66 ml with 10 % purity). The purity can be increased by re-distillation process.

Maintaining soil fertility and the  use of plant nutrient in sufficient and balanced amounts is one of the key factors in increasing crop yield and decreasing adverse environmental effects and pollutions arising from nonpoint fertilizer usage. The  effects of time and rate of nitrogen application on phenology and some agronomical traits of corn (Zea mays L.) were investigated at the research farm of the University of Mohaghegh Ardabili. The trial was laid out in a split plot design based on a randomized complete block scheme with three replications. Experimental factors were nitrogen fertilizer at four levels (0, 75, 150, and 225 kg ha–1) in the  main plots and three levels of nitrogen application time [(1/3 at sowing +  1/3 at V8–10 +  1/3 at tasseling), (1/2 at sowing +  1/2 at tasseling), and (1/2 at sowing +  1/4 at V8–10 +  1/4 at tasseling) as T1, T2, and T3, respectively] as subplots. The results showed that the maximum values of grain yield and its components, days to 50% tasseling (63.85 days), days to 50% silking (68.2 days), days to physiological maturity (128.9 days) were observed in the plots treated with 225 kg N ha–1 as T1. The maximum nitrogen use efficiency (38.16 kg kg–1) was obtained at application of 75 kg N ha–1 as T1, and the minimum values of this index (19.41 kg kg–1) were obtained in the plots that received 225 kg N ha–1 as T2. Based on the results, it was concluded that application of the highest N fertilizer rate (225 kg ha–1) in three equal splits can be recommended for profitable corn production.

Corn (Zea maysL.) and soybeans [Glycine max(L.) Merr.] were grown for 5 yr in rotation without tillage (no-till), with fall and spring tillage (disk), and with conventional tillage (plow). Weed distribution and weed yields were measured in the final year of the experiment. Grass weed yield, primarily due to green foxtail [Setaria viridis(L.) P. Beauv. ♯ SETVI], was significantly higher in the no-till system. Broadleaf weed distribution and yield were similar in all tillage systems.

A saprophytic soil fungus, Aspergillus flavus, produces aflatoxin (toxigenic strains) in the kernels of corn (Zea mays L.) and seeds of many other crops. Many strains of A. flavus do not produce toxigenic aflatoxin, and soil application of these atoxigenic strains is a suppressive control tactic to assist in controlling toxigenic conspecifics. Effects of atoxigenic A. flavus applications on honey bees (Apis mellifera L.) and other bees are unknown, and basic information on bee occurrences in cornfields treated with and without this biological agent is needed to inform integrated pest management in corn. Fields receiving atoxigenic A. flavus applications of FourSureTM were compared to nearby control fields in three counties in corn production regions in eastern Texas. In each cornfield, 20 bee bowl traps were deployed along four equal transects located between corn rows, with contents of the bowls (i.e., bees) retrieved after 24 h. Eleven bee genera from four families were collected from cornfields, with only two honey bees collected and zero honey bees observed in transects. The sweat bee genus Agapostemon (primarily composed of the Texas striped sweat bee A. texanus) was most abundant in cornfields (44% of the total number of bees collected), followed by long-horned bees (Melissodes spp., 24%). The southernmost county (i.e., San Patricio) produced over 80% of the total number of bees collected. Bee numbers occurring in cornfields with applications of atoxigenic A. flavus applications were not significantly different from those of nearby control fields. Although not statistically significant, total numbers of bees tended to be lower in FourSure-treated fields than in control fields. More extensive research on bee abundances in relation to the effect of atoxigenic A. flavus is warranted.
