Abstract

The effect of moisture tension and doses of phosphate fertilization on yield components of sweet corn A-7573 (Zea mays L.) hybrid, in a Calcium Vertisol were evaluated. Four levels of soil moisture tension, ranging from -5 to -80kPa, and three levels of phosphate fertilization: 60, 80, and 100kgha-1 were studied. In order to evaluate the effect of the experimental treatments, plant growth, development, and yield were monitored. Treatments were distributed using the randomized complete block design (RCB) for divided plots of experimental units. ANOVA analysis indicated that the effects on more humid treatments (-5 and -30kPa) were statistically equivalent, however were different from the effect of -55kPa treatment, which in turn was statistically different from the effect of the driest treatment (p
