Plant traits play an important role in determining plant density and final grain yield. In this study, two related RIL populations developed from two crosses between one high-oil maize inbred and two normal dent maize inbreds were evaluated for 13 plant traits under four environments. QTL were detected within population and in joint-population analysis, and compared with the result obtained in the...
High-oil maize (Zea mays L.) has special value in animal feed and human food. Two hundred and eight-four and 265 F2:3 families developed from two crosses between one high-oil maize inbred and two normal dent maize inbreds were evaluated for grain oil and starch contents under two environments. Using composite interval mapping, 1–6 QTL for each trait were detected under each environment and in combined...
Despite the well-recognized importance of grain yield in high-oil maize (Zea mays L.) breeding and production, few studies have reported the application of QTL mapping of such traits. An inbred line of high-oil maize designated ‘GY220’ was crossed with two dent maize inbred lines to generate two connected F2:3 populations with 284 and 265 F2:3 families. Our main objective was to evaluate the influence...
