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

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

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 ...

Inheritance of Plant and Ear Height in Maize (Zea Mays L.)
Plant and ear height are very important characters not only for describing new varieties of maize (Zea mays L.), but for green and dry matter production, and even for grain yield. Significant positive correlations have been reported by various authors between plant height and stover yield, plant height and dry matter yield, and plant height and grain ...
