Corn stalk nitrate concentration profile: Implications for the end-of-season stalk nitrate test
The end-of-season corn (Zea mays L.) stalk nitrate-N test was developed as a post-mortem to determine if excessive or insufficient N was available to the corn crop during the latter part of the season. The stalk section specified for the test was very specific, the 20 cm-long section between 15 and 35 cm above the soil. Under production conditions, it may not always be possible to collect this ...
متن کاملProcessing of Sweet Corn
Sweet corn cobs constituting raw material for processing must be characterized by the highest quality of kernels. Kernel quality is defined not just by the chemical and sensory properties, but also by the mechanical parameters of kernels. This appears to fully justify joint consideration of all those properties. Sweet corn is probably a mutant of fodder corn (Orłowski, 2000). Significant differ...
متن کاملImprovement of Sweet Corn
L HE only genetic difference between the composition of a sweet corn kernel and that of field corn is due to a single recessive gene out of the hundreds or thousands of genes in corn. This gene makes the sugary condition of the kernel persist in sweet corn; or, in other words, prevents the conversion of some of the sugar into starch. The first recorded observation of sweet corn by w^hite men ap...
متن کاملBreeding for Increased Sweetness in Sweet Corn
Sweetness, a creamy texture and aroma, along with desirable kernel color, good germination, and high yield, are the important traits for sweet corn. Various recessive mutants in corn expressed in the endosperm e.g. sugary1 (su1), sugary enhancer (se), shrunken2 (sh2), brittle1 (bt) etc., which improve quality traits such as sweetness, flavor and nutritive value have been used either singly or i...
