Does Ear Morphology Establish Automatic Extraction of Soft Biometric Traits? [PDF]
Introduction: The external appearance of auricle varies between ethnic groups. However, there have been no studies on external ear morphometry correlating soft biometrics of the same individual.

Different testers influence genetic correlational response in narrow-based maize population NSA15 [PDF]
The goal of this study was to determine correlations between grain yield and other morphological and agronomical traits in two groups of maize half-sib (HS) progenies. Progenies were obtained by crossing every S1 family with two unrelated inbred lines as

Identification of gene co-expression modules of maize plant height and ear height by WGCNA
Plant height (PH) and ear height (EH) are important factors for maize plant type and grain yield. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) is an important method to explain the relationships between gene network and complicated traits and identify the PH and EH associated genes. In this study, we used Zheng 58, Ye 478, Chang 7-2, Huangzaosi

CORRELATION AND PATH COFFICIENT ANALYSIS IN FOUR YELLOW MAIZE CROSSES UNDER TWO PLANTING DATES [PDF]
F1 and F2 seeds of four crosses were formed during 2001 and 2002 growing sea-sons. The F2 population’s plants were evaluated during 2003 growing season under the two planting dates (14th May and 29th June) to estimate the phenotypic correla-tion ...

Relationship between cultivar height and severity of Fusarium ear blight in wheat [PDF]
A significant negative relationship between tiller height and resistance to Fusarium ear blight (FEB), following inoculation, was observed in 17 cultivars of winter wheat in the 1995/96 growing season. Tall cultivars such as Kraka and Spark showed fewer symptoms of FEB (6 and 4%) than the shorter cultivars Brigadier and Virtue (35 ...
