By 2050 many African countries that are now heavily dependent on maize may not be able to grow it at all.
And on top of that there is a drought looming ahead, which may mean that maize crop this year in Zimbabwe may be a total failure.
The experiments were conducted in the North China Plain during two growing seasons of spring maize (Zea mays L). in 2011 and 2012 using 27 experimental plots of 30 m long and 3 m wide.
Cg infects maize (Zea mays) (LeBeau 1950; Jamil and Nicholson 1991), producing annual yield losses of more than 1 billion dollars in the United States alone (Frey et al. 2011) and having a great potential to damage agricultural ecosystems (Kamenidou et al. 2013).
Therefore, a trial was performed at the Leibniz Centre for Landscape Research ZALFF e. V). from 2002 to 2005 to compare conventional tillage (CT), RT and DS practices in the following crop rotation: winter rape (Brassica napus L). – winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L). – maize (Zea mays L). – winter wheat – winter barley (Hordeum vulgare L). (in DS: winter wheat).
Numerous examples of segregation distortion have been reported in many crop species, including barley (Hordeum vulgare) (Graner et al. 1991; Devaux et al. 1995), rice (Oryza sativa)(Causse et al. 1994; Xu et al. 1997), maize (Zea mays) (Wendel et al. 1987; Lu et al. 2002), and wheat (Triticum aestivum) (Blanco et al. 2004; Quarrie et al. 2005).
We conducted avian surveys on four field types in east central Illinois in the spring of 2015 and 2016: maize (Zea mays L). stubble with cover crop, maize stubble only, soybean [Glycine max (L). Merr.] stubble with cover crop, and soybean stubble only.
Domesticated corn, or maize (Zea mays mays), was derived from the Balsas teosinte (Z. mays parviglumis) of southern Mexico in pre-Columbian times more than 6,000 years ago.
The best-known species is corn, or maize (Zea mays mays), which was derived from one of the Mexican teosintes (likely Z. mays parviglumis) in pre-Columbian times more than 6,000 years ago.
