Maize (Zea mays) pollen deposition onto maize leaves during the 2010 flowering season. Shedding of pollen from an early flowering maize variety began in field A on 23 July and from a later-flowering variety in field B on 3–4 August. The maize flowering period ended around 23 August. Leaf deposition measurements in 2010 were made in field A from 28 July to 6 August and in field B from 7 to 17 August. Green dots, data (n = 2497); solid red line, daily mean; red dashed lines, 90 and 10 % quantiles based on the daily data and the censored maximum likelihood-fitted log-normal distribution
