A Heterochromatic Knob Reducing the Flowering Time in Maize

A Heterochromatic Knob Reducing the Flowering Time in Maize

Maize flowering time is an important agronomic trait, which has been associated with variations in the genome size and heterochromatic knobs content. We integrated three steps to show this association. Firstly, we selected inbred lines varying for heterochromatic knob composition at specific sites i...
