Early defoliation and nitrogen fertilization: effects on maize morphophysiology and production
Abstract Early-stage defoliation represents a mechanical stress with increasing relevance in intensive cropping systems. This study investigated the morphophysiological responses and compensatory capacity of maize subjected to early defoliation and nitrogen (N) top-dressing manag...
