Identification of a Major QTL Controlling Maize Lateral Root Branching Number Through Integrated BSA-Seq and Transcriptome Analysis

Maize lateral roots play essential roles in plant anchorage, mechanical support, and water and nutrient acquisition. However, the genetic mechanisms underlying lateral root development remain unclear. In this study, an F2 population was generated by crossing the inbred lines B111...
