“…2). Delayed planting had adverse effect on leaf area resulting in lower total dry matter and ultimately reduced yield (Shaheenuzzamn et al, 2015). Reduced leaf growth resulted in smaller canopy and produce smaller tuber.…”

“…Lower values for cob diameter and cob fresh mass under water stress conditions was reported (Parizi et al, 2009). These variables are strong yield indicators in corn crops because, the greater the corn mass, the greater the grain mass is (Shaheenuzzamn et al, 2015). This may also explain, in part, the significant differences for cob diameter and fresh weight as productivity spiked with the different soil water tensions.…”

Plant water stress is a major problem in the Cerrado biome of Brazil. Dry periods and random climatic events cause quality and yield losses in sweet corn plants. Compounds, such as silicon (Si), are being studied to reduce the negative impacts of water stress on agricultural crops. Further tests may allow farmers to increase the use of silicon-based compounds. The objective of this study was to evaluate the production parameters of the sweet corn (Zea mays var. saccharata) (Poaceae) Tropical Plus® hybrid with water stress and potassium silicate doses applied with foliar spraying. A randomized block design with four soil water tensions (15, 30, 45 and 60 kPa) and four potassium silicate doses (0, 6, 12 and 24 L ha-1) was used in a greenhouse. The studied factors, alone or in interaction with each other, did not affect most of the sweet corn yield parameters. The hypothesis that these results may have been partially affected by the presence of silicon are discussed. The sweet corn plant yield was affected mainly by the soil water tension of 60 kPa.

“…Their report indicated that the cob length ranged between 19.1 and 20.4, and 17.7 and 21.8 in cultivars and sowing dates, respectively. Shaheenuzzamn et al (2015) reported that sowing date significantly affected the cob length and diameter. Also reported that cob diameter changed between 4.09 cm and 4.44 cm.…”

“…Similarly, argue that when sowing date was delayed, sweet corn yield decreased. In addition, early sowings were suggested for successful sweet corn production in the hilly areas (Shaheenuzzamn et al, 2015). Therefore, in order to make the best use of soil moisture, plant nutrients, and solar radiation and to obtain a high-quality yield, optimum sowing date should be determined (Keerthi et al, 2017).…”

This study was undertaken to determine the performance of some sweet corn (Zea mays L. var. saccharata) cultivars at different sowing dates under high altitude conditions. In this research, the seeds of 4 sweet corn cultivars (Zea mays L. var. saccharata cvs. 'Martha F1, Vega F1, Merit F1 and Sunshine F1') were used as plant material. It was determined that sowing date has a significant effect on the plant height, cob diameter and length, the number of kernels/cob, husked and de-husked cob weight, and total husked and de-husked cob yield. Due to the delay in sowing date, all examined parameters were reduced. Martha F1 compared to the other cultivars showed the best performance in terms of total husked and de-husked cob yield. The highest total husked (17260 kg ha-1) and de-husked (11818 kg ha-1) cob yield were determined in cv. Martha F1 in the first sowing date in both experiment years. In high altitude production areas such as Erzurum, sowing should be done as early as possible for high yield and quality in sweet corn. According to the results of the research, sweet corn can be produced successfully with sowing on 23 May in Erzurum. Also, all of the cultivars used in this research, especially cv. Martha F1 can be recommended to the sweet corn producer for high yield and quality.
