A high plant density reduces the ability of maize to use soil nitrogen.

A high plant density reduces the ability of maize to use soil nitrogen.

Understanding the physiological changes associated with high grain yield and high N use efficiency (NUE) is important when increasing the plant density and N rate to develop optimal agronomic management. We tested the hypothesis that high plant densities resulting in crowding stress reduce the abili...
