QTL verification of grain protein content and its correlation with oil content by using connected RIL populations of high-oil maize
“QTL verification of grain protein content and its correlation with oil content by using connected RIL populations of high-oil maize”, vol. 13, pp. 881-894, 2014.
, Maize with high grain protein and oil contents offers great advantages for human food and animal feed. In this study, grain protein contents of 282 and 263 F7:8 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) of 2 crosses were evaluated in 4 environments within and between populations. The RILs were developed from crosses between an inbred high-oil maize line and 2 normal dent inbred maize lines.
