Can genetic variability for nitrogen metabolism in the developing ear of maize be exploited to improve yield?

The New phytologist - 1 Apr 2012

Cañas Rafael A, Quilleré Isabelle, Gallais André, Hirel Bertrand

Abstract excerpt

Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for the main steps of nitrogen (N) metabolism in the developing ear of maize (Zea mays L.) and their co-localization with QTLs for kernel yield and putative candidate genes were searched in order to identify chromosomal regions putatively involved in the determination of yield. During the grain-filling period, the changes in physiological traits were monitored in the cob and in the...
