Abstract excerpt
Maize germplasm is fundamental for breeding progress, yet the genetic and phenotypic trajectories of China’s modern commercial hybrids are poorly characterized. Through whole-genome resequencing of the hybrids themselves—which directly represent commercially deployed varieties— and multi-trait phenotyping of 61 elite hybrids, we delineated two major germplasm groups: a broad-based V1 group and a V2 group...
