This seems distinct from weight of one of more kernels, and more of a yield trait. Suggested definition: A kernel weight which is associated with the weight of all kernels [fruit] on a the primary ear.
Created new term for MaizeGDB kernel weight per ear: TO:0000935
A kernel weight (TO:0000919) which is associated with the total weight of all kernels on the primary ear infructescence (PO:0025597).
