Abstract excerpt

Maize is a major feed and food crop, yet its kernel protein content remains insufficient to meet nutritional needs. Enhancing protein content is critical for improving feed efficiency and supporting plant-based diets. Although numerous QTLs associated with protein content have been identified, their typically broad confidence intervals and variability across studies make it difficult to pinpoint reliable...
