Kernel hardness-related traits in response to heat stress during the grain-filling period of maize crops

Postflowering heat stress causes the arrest of kernel growth, increasing kernel protein concentration and the relative abundance of γ-zeins, two biochemical traits contributing to maize (Zea mays L.) hardness. The impact of early and late postflowering heat stress on kernel physical traits related t...
