EVALUATION OF NEW INBRED LINES OF WHITE MAIZE VIA LINE X TESTER ANALYSIS OVER THREE LOCATIONS [PDF]
Twenty four white maize inbred lines were top crossed with two testers i.e. SC 162, SC 166 in 2009 growing season. Resulting 48 crosses in addition to two commercial check hybrids i.e.

Genome-wide association study for plant height and ear height in maize under well-watered and water-stressed conditions. [PDF]
Both plant height (PH) and ear height (EH) are critical traits in maize and are closely associated with grain yield and mechanized harvesting. Increasing the number of molecular markers and mining functional genes by combining approaches such as genotype and phenotype analysis will contribute to elucidating the molecular mechanism underlying PH and EH ...

In a large number of plant species, including maize, different phenotypic traits have undergone major changes through the breeding process, resulting in the creation of varieties and hybrids of good agronomic performance. This study aimed to examine the variability of the plant height (PH) and plant height to the uppermost ear (EH) of maize top cross ...

Genetic Relationship of Stalk Strength and Ear Height in Maize [PDF]
The rind penetrometer is an effective tool for measuring stalk strength in an effort to improve maize (Zea mays L.) germplasm for stalk lodging resistance. However, previous studies have indicated a significant negative correlation between rind penetrometer resistance (RPR) and ear height (EH).

Quantitative trait locus analysis of heterosis for plant height and ear height in an elite maize hybrid zhengdan 958 by design III. [PDF]
Plant height (PH) and ear height (EH) are two important agronomic traits in maize selection breeding. F1 hybrid exhibit significant heterosis for PH and EH as compared to their parental inbred lines. To understand the genetic basis of heterosis controlling PH and EH, we conducted quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis using a recombinant inbreed line (
