Genetic mapping and genomic selection for maize stalk strength

Genetic mapping and genomic selection for maize stalk strength

Abstract Background Maize is one of the most important staple crops and is widely grown throughout the world. Stalk lodging can cause enormous yield losses in maize production. However, rind penetrometer resistance (RPR), which is recognized as a reliable measurement to evaluate stalk strength, has...
