The scientific data presented in this paper were obtained in an experiment unfolded in 2017, 2018 and 2019 at ARDS Marculesti, Călărași County, Romania. The experiment was set up using the two-factor subdivided plot method, the A-factor was the corn hybrid and B factor-irrigation regime. The subdivisions of A factor have been: a1- P9175 (FAO 330), a2 - KWS BELLAVISTA (FAO 330), a3 - KWS SMARAGD (FAO 350), a4 - KWS KASHMIR (370 FAO) and a5 - KWS DURANGO (FAO 480). The subdivisions of B factor have been: b1 - rainfed; b2 - stressed at and after flowering: b3 - stressed before flowering and b4 - full irrigated throughout the vegetation period. The highest hectoliter mass values, as average, were obtained by the Bellavista hybrid and the lowest by the P9175 hybrid. As regard HLM, no significant values between irrigation treatments were recorded. The lowest TKW values were recorded in the Bellavista and Smaragd hybrids. The mass of one thousand grains registered very significantly positive differences between rainfed and irrigated, with very large amplitudes, close to 100 g.
