ZmCCT haplotype H5 improves yield, stalk-rot resistance, and drought tolerance in maize

The ZmCCT locus underlies both stalk-rot resistance and photoperiod sensitivity in maize (Zea mays L.). We previously introduced nine resistant ZmCCT haplotypes into seven elite but susceptible maize inbred lines (containing the haplotype H1) to generate 63 backcross families. Here, we continued bac...
