Investigation and analysis on the number of barren ear tip per plant in a maize RIL population
Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Biosciences - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most important cereal crops in the world. In this present study, a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from the cross between Mo17 and Huangzao4 were selected to be investigated the trait the number of barren ear tips per plant (NBETP) under two nitrogen regimes, an important agronomic trait related to yield. Based on the phenotypic values of the two parents and RIL population in the trait NBETP, SPSS 11.5 software was used to perform descriptive statistics, analysis of variance and correlation analysis. The results are useful for further quantitative trait locus mapping for the trait NBETP in maize breeding project. Keywords: maize; the number of barren ear tip per ear; recombinant inbred line population; statistic analysis
