Abstract:Off-season corn is the main form of corn crop in Brazil. During the maturation stage of the plants, the availability of heat is reduced, and frosts may occur. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of row spacing reduction and population increase in corn cultivars on agronomic parameters and leaf burn caused by moderate frost to minimize the effects of abiotic stresses on grain yield. We used a randomized block experimental design in a 3 × 4 × 2 factorial scheme: row spacing of 40, 80, and 120 cm; p… Show more
