Other claims from this paper (11)
- Observation Twelve significant QTL were detected for agronomic and resistance traits.
- Association At bin 1.10, the same allele improved maize yield and insect resistance.
- Association At bin 5.04, the same allele improved maize yield and insect resistance.
- Association QTL in region 8.04-8.05 had opposite effects on yield and resistance.
- Observation Several QTL for joint yield and resistance indexes were found, especially in region 10.02-10.03.
- Recommendation Selecting the favorable allele at bin 5.01 was predicted to leave yield, silking and plant height unaffected.
- Recommendation The authors proposed region 5.04 for joint improvement of stalk resistance and yield.
- Recommendation An allele at bin 9.07 was predicted to increase ear resistance to corn borer.
- Recommendation The bin 9.07 allele could lead to later varieties.
- Recommendation The favorable allele at region 1.10 was proposed to improve ear and stalk resistance and yield without adverse secondary effects.
- Recommendation The authors highlighted regions 8.03-8.05, 10.02-10.03 and 5.04 for elucidating associations among yield, agronomic traits and corn borer resistance.
