Exploring the Potential of Heterosis to Improve Nitrogen Use Efficiency in Popcorn Plants

Exploring the Potential of Heterosis to Improve Nitrogen Use Efficiency in Popcorn Plants

Nitrogen is crucial for plant growth and development, and improving nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is a viable strategy for reducing dependence on nitrogen inputs and promoting sustainability. While the benefits of heterosis in corn are well known, the physiological mechanisms underlying this phenome...
