Grain quality and yield potential of hybrids from quality and non-quality protein maize inbred lines

2022-09-01

Abstract excerpt

Identification of maize hybrids with enhanced quality trait(s) is important for addressing malnutrition among the increasing human population. The objective of this study was to assess quality trait performance of quality protein maize (QPM) and non-QPM lines crossed with QPM and non-QPM testers. A total of 130 hybrid progenies (48 QPM x QPM, 64 QPM x non-QPM and 18 non-QPM x non-QPM) were generated from QPM and n...
