Evaluation of physical, nutritional and popping quality of some maize (Zea mays) varieties
Freshly procured maize varieties HQPM-1, HQPM-5, HKI-161, HKI-193 and JM-216 were studied to assess the physical attributes indicating the quality of maize. The kernel Seed weight(g) ranged from 1.69 – 3.80, density (g/cm3) 1.1- 1.90, Volume(cm3/g) 15 - 30, Size (Average of L, W,T (m3) 4.35-5.15, bulk density gm/ml 0.11 – 0.19 and spherecity (m3) 0.67 ...

Evaluation of popping expansion traits in a maize (Zea mays L.) population
In a popcorn breeding program, the procedures and techniques used for breeding popcorn are similar to those used for breeding dent corn with some minor adjustments needed. The adjustments in popcorn breeding are due to the poorer agronomic traits performance of popcorn germplasm compared with dent corn germplasm.

Pat analysis for popping volume, grah yield and yield components in maize (Zea mays L. everta) [PDF]
Five maize inbred lines, ZPNP11, Sg1533, ZPLP2/1, ZPK18 and ZPK6, were used for this study. The dilled cross with n(n-l)/2 combinations was performed and 10 Fl hybrids were analyzed in parallel trials in two locations (Zemun Polje and Indjija).
