Comprehensive analysis of imprinted genes in maize reveals limited conservation with other species and allelic variation for imprinting [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 In plants, a subset of genes exhibit imprinting in endosperm tissue such that expression is primarily from the maternal or paternal allele. Imprinting may arise as a consequence of mechanisms for silencing of transposons during reproduction, and in some cases imprinted expression of particular genes may provide a selective advantage such that it is ...

Stem-leaf segmentation and phenotypic trait extraction of maize shoots from three-dimensional point cloud [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Nowadays, there are many approaches to acquire three-dimensional (3D) point clouds of maize plants. However, automatic stem-leaf segmentation of maize shoots from three-dimensional (3D) point clouds remains challenging, especially for new emerging leaves that are very close and wrapped together during the seedling stage.

The improvement of breeding methods of middle-maturing hybrids of maize in Nizhnee Povolzhye
Зерновое хозяйство России, 2018 The article considers the results of the ecological trials (2008-2016) among the maize hybrids (FAO 200-249), developed in the different selection centers of Russia. The number of the hybrids (FAO 200-249) participating in the ecological trials was 36-43

Twin-Row Production and Optimal Plant Population for Modern Maize Hybrids [PDF]
, 2011 Maize (Zea mays L.) is widely grown for food, feed, and fuel, and optimal yield will be required to meet increasing demand due to world population growth and increased biofuel usage.

The GhWL1‐GhH1‐GhGA2OX1 Transcriptional Module Regulates Cotton Leaf Morphology
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identified GhWL1 as a key gene involved in regulating leaf development through analysis of a T‐DNA insertion mutant. The GhWL1‐GhH1 complex is shown to positively regulate GhGA2OX1 by directly binding to its promoter, thereby establishing the GhWL1‐GhH1‐GhGA2OX1 module as a critical pathway in leaf development.

TasselNet: Counting maize tassels in the wild via local counts regression network [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Accurately counting maize tassels is important for monitoring the growth status of maize plants. This tedious task, however, is still mainly done by manual efforts. In the context of modern plant phenotyping, automating this task is required to meet the need of large-scale analysis of genotype and phenotype.

Fatty acid composition of maize silages from different hybrids
Acta Fytotechnica et Zootechnica, 2017 The aim of this research was to determine the fatty acid content in maize silages of different hybrids. Grain hybrid with FAO number 420 and silage hybrid with stay-green maturation with FAO number 450 were evaluated.

Simulating of Top-Cross system for enhancement of antioxidants in maize grain
Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2014 Blue maize (Zea mays L.) is grown for its high content of antioxidants. Conversion of yellow and white to blue maize is time consuming because several genes affect blue color. After each backcross selfing is needed for color to be expressed.
