Abstract
The present study investigated the effect of planting density on plant growth and yield of maize varieties. An experiment was conducted at Agricultural Research Farms Khyber Pukhtunkhwa Agricultural University Peshawar, Pakistan using randomized complete block (RCB) design with split plot arrangement having four replications. The experiment consist of four maize varieties viz., Azam, Pahari, Jalal-2003 and Sarhad white as main plot factor and three plant densities of 45000, 55000 and 65000 plants ha-1 as sub plot factor. Analysis of the data indicated that planting density had a significant (p
