Heterosis for carotenoid concentration and profile in maize hybrids.

Genome - 1 Dec 2011

Burt Andrew J, Grainger Christopher M, Shelp Barry J, Lee Elizabeth A

Abstract excerpt

Production of high-lutein maize grain is of particular interest as a value-added feed source to produce high-lutein eggs. In this paper, it is demonstrated that heterosis for total carotenoid concentration and for the ratio of lutein to zeaxanthin (L:Z ratio), or profile type, exists infrequently in yellow dent crosses. However, yellow dent inbred maize lines A619 and CG102, both possessing high-lutein profiles,...
