Genetic analysis of ear, husk, and tassel traits in tropical maize under diverse environments

Grain yield (GY) in maize (Zea mays L.) is influenced by multiple component traits, with ear- and tassel-related traits playing a significant role. Despite their importance, these traits receive less emphasis in tropical maize breeding. This study aimed to: (i) assess the inheritance and heterosis o...
