Abiotic stress growth conditions induce different responses in kernel iron concentration across genotypically distinct maize inbred varieties

Abiotic stress growth conditions induce different responses in kernel iron concentration across genotypically distinct maize inbred varieties

The improvement of grain nutrient profiles for essential minerals and vitamins through breeding strategies is a target important for agricultural regions where nutrient poor crops like maize contribute a large proportion of the daily caloric intake. Kernel iron concentration in maize exhibits a bro...
