Water replenishment to maize under heat stress improves canopy temperature and grain filling traits during the reproductive stage
AGRICULTURAL AND FOREST METEOROLOGY(2023)
Abstract
•Higher than optimal temperature during reproductive stage affected maize production.•Elevating SWC mitigated the impacts of heat during reproductive stage.•Higher SWC improved grain weight by 2.0–14.8% and grain yield by 11.8–13.5%.•Higher SWC significantly improved Gmean, Gmax, Pf, DMA, grain weight, and final yield.
