Abstract:Because of its wide distribution and adaptation, the maize Ratón race (Zea mays L.) is an important component of the diversity in the state of Coahuila, Mexico. The objective of the present research was to perform a morphological characterization of 83 native populations of the Ratón race and identify a subset that will represent diversity. Populations were evaluated in replicated experiments at two different locations with two planting dates per location. Twenty-six quantitative characters of the plant, tasse… Show more
