Defoliation (below and above the ear) was the main plot and defoliation time (at flowering, milk and dough stage) was the sub-plots. In the experiment, LG-55 hybrid corn cultivar was used. In the study, significant differences between defoliation below ear and above ear were found. Early defoliation resulted in decreases in all measured characters. Defoliation at later growth stages, grain yield considerably increased. Both fresh and dry leaf yields were not affected by defoliation position and time.</p>}, number={1}, journal={ISPEC Journal of Agricultural Sciences}, author={Serap Mutlu AKIL and Gülşah BENGİSU}, year={2020}, month={May}, pages={1–11} }
