Abstract:Screening of hybrid corn parent lines quickly and cheaply compared to hydroponic methods in the laboratory is needed to support the assembly of new high yielding varieties of acid tolerant corn. Addition of CaCO3 as equivalent to 2 t/ha (normal soil), while 0.5 t/ha AlCl3 (acidic). A total of 12 elite maize lines were tested based on relative root growth (RRG). Four sets of experiments were made, namely 2 sets normal soil media (pH 6.5) and 2 sets acid soil media (pH 4.3). Experimental design used in each expe… Show more
