Other claims from this paper (11)
- Association Seedling emergence rate, root number and seedling length decreased with sowing depth.
- Observation Variation across sowing depths was greatest for seedling emergence rate and coleoptile length.
- Observation Variation across sowing depths was least for root length, root number and mesocotyl length.
- Association At 10 cm, seedling emergence rate correlated positively with coleoptile, root and seedling length.
- Association At 15 cm, seedling emergence rate correlated positively with mesocotyl length, combined mesocotyl and coleoptile length, root number, root length and seedling length.
- Observation Traits at 15 cm reflected deep-sowing tolerance among maize lines.
- Method / resource The 45 maize lines were categorized into three tolerance groups.
- Method / resource The 45 lines formed six pedigree-consistent subgroups.
- Observation Seedling emergence, root and mesocotyl traits differed markedly across the six subgroups at 15 cm.
- Observation Lancaster, Sipingtou and PA had relatively higher trait values and strong to medium deep-sowing tolerance.
- Recommendation Lancaster, Sipingtou and PA are identified as elite germplasm for deep-sowing tolerance improvement.
