Effect of tillers on corn yield: Exploring trait plasticity potential in unpredictable environments

Long‐term selection in maize (Zea mays L.) favored single‐stalked phenotypes limiting vegetative growth. However, reduced plant densities create conducive environments to the expression of vegetative branches called tillers. Tiller expression has motivated discussions about its yield effect in varia...
