Simultaneous Dissection of Grain Carotenoid Levels and Kernel Color in Biparental Maize Populations with Yellow-to-Orange Grain

2021-09-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Maize enriched in provitamin A carotenoids could be key in combatting vitamin A deficiency in human populations relying on maize as a food staple. Consumer studies indicate that orange maize may be regarded as novel and preferred. This study identifies genes of relevance for grain carotenoid concentrations and kernel color, through simultaneous dissection of these traits in 10 families of the U....
