“…Starch (Chu and Shannon 1975). In this study, a method for repeated sampling of kernels from a single ear in situ was employed, similar to that described by Duncan and Hatfield (1964 Scarborough, Ontario) in a controlledenvironment growth room (Stoskopf et al' 1970 Atkins and Canvin (1971). Percent in ethanol-soluble sugars was determined according to a colorimetric method (Dubois et al 1956).…”

Torr-rNlen, M. eNo DevNeno, T. B. lg7g. Dry weight, soluble sugar conrenr, and starch content of maize kemels during the eaily poitsilking period. can. J.Plant Kernel development was studied in the maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids united-Hl06 and Funk's G-4444, grown in a controlled-environment growth rlom. A method was employed in which husks were excised, and kernels weri removed from the same set of ears at several subsequent sampling dates. This method did not affect the dry. matter accumulation of the remaining kernels. Basal kemels (kemel numbers [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] in the row) and tip kernels (kernel nrrmbers 3l-40) were removed at2-day intervals during the period from l0 to 20 days postsilking. Dry weight, ethanol-soluble sugar content, and starch content were determined for each sample. Accurnulation of Jry matter in the tip kemels ceased in a fraction of the United-H106 ears at the onset oi the period of linear tip-kemel dry matter accumulation. Only small differences were g-bs.erve_d-in sugar content between growing and non-growing tip kemels of ears of united-H106. Starch

Effect of temperature and photoperiod on the phenological development of common lambsquarters

The goal of a mechanistic model is to determine the outcome of weed–crop interference. An understanding of weed phenology is essential for construction of such models because phenological development is a major factor determining the outcome of weed–crop competition. Growth cabinet studies were conducted to determine the influence of temperature and photoperiod on the phenological development of common lambsquarters. Common lambsquarters is a short-day species adapted to a temperature range of 6.5 to 44.5 C. Phenological development of common lambsquarters grown under a constant temperature of 20 C and an 8-h photoperiod was described in terms of biological days (Bd: chronological days at the optimum photoperiod and temperature). Three development phases of common lambsquarters were described as (1) a juvenile phase of 6.3 Bd, (2) a photoperiod-sensitive inductive phase of 8.2 Bd, and (3) a photoperiod-sensitive postinductive phase of 34.4 Bd. The photoperiod sensitivity of rate of development did not differ among phases of development across the life cycle. Interpretation of constant sensitivity to photoperiod will simplify simulation of weed phenology in mechanistic models.
