Mapping and Functional Analysis of QTL for Kernel Number per Row in Tropical and Temperate–Tropical Introgression Lines of Maize (<i>Zea mays</i> L.)

Kernel number per row (KNR) is an essential component of maize (<i>Zea mays</i> L.) grain yield (GY), and understanding its genetic mechanism is crucial to improve GY. In this study, two F<sub>7</sub> recombinant inbred line (RIL) populations were created using a temperate–tr...
