Abstract excerpt
Higher hydroxycinnamate content makes maize tissues more recalcitrant to damage by insects, less digestible by ruminants, and less suitable for biofuel production. In a Genome Wide Association Analysis (GWAS) study carried out in a maize MAGIC population, we identified 24 SNPs associated with esterified cell wall-bound hydroxycinnamates, that represented 15 Quantitative Traic Loci (QTL). We identified new genomic...
