Abstract:The paper described the main factors that caused the premature aging of maize leaves and roots,such as genetic inheritance of variety,weather conditions,soil environments,cropping patterns etc, and the inherent mechanism of premature senescence and its effects on maize yield. Meanwhile,the de-tailed regulation measures were proposed,including the breeding of resistant varieties,the reasonable cul-tivation measures and the application of plant growth regulators. Finally,the prevention measures to corn premature aging in the future were prospected.
