Effect of moisture content on vitreous matrix formation of maize kernel in normal, opaque-2 and qpm germplasm

Mehak Sethi; Harmanjot Kaur; Dharam Paul Chaudhary Agricultural Research Journal 2020. doi:10.5958/2395-146x.2020.00002.2

Other claims from this paper (7)

Observation Opaque-2 retained 23.53% moisture, higher than normal and QPM lines.
Observation All maize types had 100% opaqueness at initial stages.
Observation Normal maize had 0 to 25% opaqueness at maturity.
Observation QPM maize had 0 to 25% opaqueness at maturity.
Observation Opaque-2 maize retained 75–100% opaqueness at maturity.
Mechanism The authors conclude that low moisture helps retain vitreous kernel texture at maturity in normal and QPM maize.
Mechanism The authors conclude that high moisture leads to chalky opaque kernel texture in opaque-2 maize.

Observation Kernel weight increased during development.
Observation Endosperm cell number increased during development.
Observation Kernel volume first rose and then fell during development.
