In underdeveloped nations where low-input agriculture is practiced, low phosphorus (LP) in the soil reduces the production of maize. In the present study, a total of 550 inbred maize lines were assessed for seedling traits under LP (2.5 × 10 mol L of KHPO) and NP (2.

To improve yields under abiotic stress conditions, drought- and salinity-tolerant crops are key to support world crop production and mitigate the demand of the growing world population. Nevertheless, plant responses to abiotic stresses are highly complex and controlled by networks of genetic and ecological factors that are the main targets of crop breeding programs.

Article Synopsis
- This study investigates a non-destructive method using digital photo pixels to monitor canopy cover (CC) in maize, assessing its growth and nitrogen nutrition status.
- The research, conducted between 2012 and 2013 at the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Science, established strong correlations between CC and key growth indicators such as leaf area index (LAI), shoot dry matter (DM), and leaf nitrogen content (N%).
- The developed models demonstrated high accuracy in estimating LAI, DM, and nitrogen content based on CC, suggesting that this technique could be effectively used for real-time monitoring of maize growth and nutrition under varying nitrogen treatments.
