Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: Combined linkage and association analysis revealed five co-localized genetic loci across multiple environments. The key gene Zm00001d026491 was further verified to influence leaf length by candidate gene association analysis. Leaf morphology and number determine the canopy structure and thus affect crop yield. Herein, the genetic basis and key genes for 25 leaf-related traits, including leaf lengths...
