Genome-Wide Association Study Reveals the Genetic Basis of Kernel and Cob Moisture Changes in Maize at Physiological Maturity Stage [PDF]
Plants, 2022 Low moisture content (MC) and high dehydration rate (DR) at physiological maturity affect grain mechanical harvest, transport, and storage. In this study, we used an association panel composed of 241 maize inbred lines to analyze ear moisture changes at ...
