Relationship between kernel drydown rate and resistance to gibberella ear rot in maize
2015-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Development of gibberella ear rot (GER) resistant genotypes in maize is important to reduce yield loss and most importantly to avoid mycotoxin contamination of food and feed. The objective of the current study was to investigate the effect of kernel drydown rate (KDD) on GER disease development and to test whether using KDD as an indirect selection trait could warrant selection gains for GER resistance. Six inbred...
