Are Maize Stalks Efficiently Tapered to Withstand Wind Induced Bending Stresses?

C. J. Stubbs, K. Seegmiller, R. S. Sekhon, D. J. Robertson

This study investigates maize stalk morphology to determine if rind tissues are efficiently organized to withstand wind-induced bending stresses, finding that stronger hybrids allocate rind tissue more efficiently but remain structurally suboptimal.

The Effect of Self-Loading on the Mechano-Stability and Stalk Lodging Resistance of Plant Stems

C. J. Stubbs, Y. Oduntan, S. Noble, T. Keep, D. J. Robertson

This paper investigates how self-loading and external loading interact to affect plant stem structural integrity and provides tools to account for self-weight in mechanical phenotyping experiments.

Stalk Bending Strength is Strongly Associated with Maize Stalk Lodging Incidence Across Multiple Environments

R. S. Sekhon, C. N. Joyner, A. J. Ackerman, C. S. McMahan, D. D. Cook, D. J. Robertson

This study links stalk bending strength measured by a field phenotyping platform to maize stalk lodging incidence across multiple environments, showing it is the strongest predictor.

Stalk Lodging: A Portable Device for Phenotyping Stalk Bending Strength of Maize and Sorghum

D. D. Cook, W. de la Chapelle, T.-C. Lin, S. Y. Lee, W. Sun, D. J. Robertson

The paper introduces DARLING, a device for field-based phenotyping of stalk strength in maize and sorghum, which induces natural lodging failure patterns and provides quantitative measurements of flexural stiffness and bending strength.
