The Genetic Architecture of Maize Stalk Strength
Stalk strength is an important trait in maize (Zea mays L.). Strong stalks reduce lodging and maximize harvestable yield. Studies show rind penetrometer resistance (RPR), or the force required to pierce a stalk rind with a spike, is a valid approximation of strength. We measured RPR across 4,692 recombinant inbreds (RILs) comprising the maize nested association mapping (NAM) panel derived from ...
متن کاملCrinoid stalk flexibility: theoretical predictions and fossil stalk postures
Flexibilities in Lower Mississippian crinoid stalks were inferred from preserved postures and shown not to conform with predictions of a cantilever beam model. Flexibilities were not correlated with hard-part characters such as stalk diameter, stalk length, or columnal height. The lack of correspondence between the predictions of the cantilever model and observed flexibilities implies that the ...
متن کاملA high-throughput core sampling device for the evaluation of maize stalk composition
BACKGROUND A major challenge in the identification and development of superior feedstocks for the production of second generation biofuels is the rapid assessment of biomass composition in a large number of samples. Currently, highly accurate and precise robotic analysis systems are available for the evaluation of biomass composition, on a large number of samples, with a variety of pretreatment...
متن کاملGenome-Wide Association Study Reveals the Genetic Basis of Stalk Cell Wall Components in Maize
Lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose are the three main components of the plant cell wall and can impact stalk quality by affecting cell wall structure and strength. In this study, we evaluated the lignin (LIG), cellulose (CEL) and hemicellulose (HC) contents in maize using an association mapping panel that included 368 inbred lines in seven environments. A genome-wide association study using ap...
متن کاملQuantitative Trait Locus Analysis of Stalk Strength in Four Maize Populations
rots in maize. High yielding cultivars, increased plant densities, and improvements in soil fertility are generally Stalk lodging in maize (Zea mays L.) causes yield losses estimated accepted to have also contributed to increased stalk to range from 5 to 20% annually worldwide. Selection for rind penetrometer resistance (RPR) has proven useful in enhancing germplasm lodging. for stalk strength,...
