Independent genetic control of maize (Zea mays L.) kernel weight determination and its phenotypic plasticity.

Journal of experimental botany - 1 Aug 2014

Alvarez Prado Santiago, Sadras Víctor O, Borrás Lucas

Abstract excerpt

Maize kernel weight (KW) is associated with the duration of the grain-filling period (GFD) and the rate of kernel biomass accumulation (KGR). It is also related to the dynamics of water and hence is physiologically linked to the maximum kernel water content (MWC), kernel desiccation rate (KDR), a...
