Identification of QTNs, QTN-by-environment interactions for plant height and ear height in maize multi-environment GWAS [PDF]
Plant height (PH) and ear height (EH) are important traits associated with biomass, lodging resistance, and grain yield in maize. There were strong effects of genotype x environment interaction (GEI) on plant height and ear height of maize. In this study,
