Gene expression analyses in maize inbreds and hybrids with varying levels of heterosis
BACKGROUND:Heterosis is the superior performance of F1 hybrid progeny relative to the parental phenotypes. Maize exhibits heterosis for a wide range of traits, however the magnitude of heterosis is highly variable depending on the choice of parents and the trait(s) measured. We have used expression...
