Data recording: The leaf area index (LAI), crop growth rate (CGR) and net assimilations rate (NAR) were determined by standard procedures Watson (1947) and Hunt (1978) post 30, 60 and 90 days after sowing and the later on the average was calculated.

It seems like that in this experiment nitrogen has affected the number of grains per corn by increasing crop growth rate. Moreover, nitrogen caused assimilate availability for the corn through photosynthesis durability and thus because of the decrease of grains competition for taking nutrients the number of grains per corn and the weight of 1000-grain increased.

Previous relationships between photosynthesis and pod and seed number were frequently based on static relationships (e.g., average plant or crop growth rates during flowering and pod set; Pandy et al., 1984; Egli and Zhen-wen, 1991; Vega et al., 2001).
