Abstract: | Ears were removed from field grown maize (Zea mays L.) to determine the effects on senescence and metabolism and to clarify conflicting literature reports pertaining to these effects. Ears were removed at three days after anthesis and comparisons were made of changes in metabolism between eared and earless plants until grain of the eared plants matured as judged by black layer formation. |
