Abstract excerpt
Kernel water content (KWC) and kernel dehydration rate (KDR) are two main factors affecting maize seed quality and have a decisive influence on the mechanical harvest. It is of great importance to map and mine candidate genes related to KWCs and KDRs before physiological maturity in maize. 120 double-haploid (DH) lines constructed from Si287 with low KWC and JiA512 with high KWC were used as the mapping...
