Abstract:Background and ObjectiveAmong the methods to improve the quality of maize (Zea mays L.) kernels are crossing with better quality genotypes and agronomic management. In this study, the quality (lipids, proteins, crude fiber, carbohydrates, ashes, minerals, and amino acids) of polyembryonic (PEm) and non‐polyembryonic (NPEm) maize was evaluated in individual plants (IND) as polyembryonic (PE). Three different genotypes (AE = high polyembryony hybrid maize, NAP = normal‐height high polyembryony maize, and CAI = N… Show more
