Heterotic loci identified for plant height and ear height using two CSSLs test populations in maize

Heterotic loci identified for plant height and ear height using two CSSLs test populations in maize

Heterosis is an important biological phenomenon, and it has been used to increase grain yield, quality and resistance to abiotic and biotic stresses in many crops. However, the genetic mechanism of heterosis remains unclear up to now. In this study, a set of 184 chromosome segment substitution lines...
