Temperature Impact on Maize Yield Stages by Victor M. Pinto is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study investigates the impact of temperature on maize yield during different grain-filling stages, revealing that the maximum temperature threshold varies across these stages, with the active grain-filling period being most sensitive. Heat during this period accounts for over 80% of yield variation, influenced by growing degree days and heat degree days. The findings emphasize the need for precise identification of heat thresholds to optimize sowing dates and mitigate heat stress effects on maize produ
