Six generations, consisting of three resistant parents, three susceptible parents, their 15 possible F1 crosses, 15 Fz's, 15 BCI's (F1 Γ resistant female parent) and 15 BC2's (FI Γ susceptible male parent) were analysed following Hayman (Heredity 12:371-390, 1958) to evaluate the nature and type of

Phosphoglucomutase (PGM; EC 2.7.5.1) isozyme variants were studied in a large number of inbred lines, crosses, and races of maize (Zea mays L.). Patterns of Mendelian inheritance demonstrated for PGM isozyme variants indicated that they are encoded by nuclear genes. Two unlinked loci, Pgml and Pgm2,
Leaf chlorosis is one of the most obvious symptoms of low-temperature damage in maize . Divergent mass selection for chlorosis resistance was performed during two cycles of selection in two synthetic cold-tolerant populations . Both populations responded to selection, and after one cycle of selectio
Sixty-seven inbred lines of maize were evaluated for resistance to low-temperature photoinhibition of photosynthesis, using a pulse-modulated chlorophyll fluorescence technique. The evaluation procedure was based on leaf discs, which were exposed to a high irradiance (1000 #mol/m2/s) at 70 C. The ef
