How to Monitor Growth and Identify Developmental Stages of Maize ( Zea mays ).

Abstract

Properly characterizing the stages of corn growth is critical to conducting successful experiments in maize genetics and breeding. Specifically, accurately identifying stages of growth is required to perform developmentally dependent sampling or data collection, to predict time to flowering and seed maturation, and to allow for comparisons between different lines and populations based on developmental time. In this protocol, we summarize previous knowledge about maize development and describe how to monitor these stages in the reference inbred line B73, a yellow dent corn.

Plant phenotyping relevance

トウモロコシの発育段階という植物状態を、実験・育種で再現可能にモニタリングするプロトコルが中心であり、発育ステージ測定法として収録対象と判断します。
