Comprehensive diallel analysis of combining ability and heterosis to Fusarium verticillioides ear rot resistance in maize
2024-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Maize (Zea mays L.) Fusarium ear rot (FER), which is caused by the fungal pathogen Fusarium verticillioides, is a major ear disease affecting maize production in China. Developing resistant maize hybrids is a cost‐effective and environmentally friendly method of reducing yield losses due to FER. Using the nail punch inoculation method, 17 highly resistant and 16 highly susceptible inbred lines were identified in t...
