Deep nitrogen fertilizer placement improves the yield of summer maize (Zea mays L.) by enhancing its photosynthetic performance after silking

Abstract Background Effective nitrogen (N) fertilizer management can improve photosynthetic performance of maize and enhance the grain yield. However, the effects of the deep placement of N on post-silking photosynthetic performance in maize and its relationship with grain filling are limited. The s...
