Identification of yield-related QTLs and their applications using DH population in maize

Abstract Background Kernel row number (KRN) and ear length (EL) are key traits that contributes greatly to grain yield in maize (Zea mays L.). Although some quantitative trait loci (QTL) for KRN or EL have been identified, few have been effectively utilized in breeding. Results In this study, we ide...
