Abstract excerpt
Earlymaturity and lowear position traits are important selective traits in maize breeding procedures, especially in northern China. To construct a genomic prediction model for selecting early-maturity and low-ear-position hybrids adapted to different environments, 34elite inbred lines were selected to produce 285 single-cross hybrids using a partial diallel cross design. These inbred lines constituted a mini-core...
