Abstract excerpt
Background: Maize shoot height is an important component of early vigor and plant architecture; however, its genetic basis during seedling development and its relationship with modern breeding remain insufficiently understood. This study aimed to investigate the genetic architecture of maize seedling shoot height across different breeding eras. Methods: Shoot height at 21 days after sowing was evaluated in 363...
