Maize Canopy Architecture and Chili Shade Tolerance in Tropical Intercropping Systems: A Systematic Review of Microclimate Modification, Genetic Adaptation, and Breeding Targets

Background Intercropping benefits are strongly context-dependent, shaped by physiological compatibility between component species rather than spatial arrangement alone. In maize-chili systems, this compatibility is governed by two historically separate literatures: maize canopy a...
