Higher hydroxycinnamate content makes maize tissues more recalcitrant to damage by
insects, less digestible by ruminants, and less suitable for biofuel production. In a Genome …

In order to study the genetic diversity and selection of superior durum wheat lines, 120 pure
lines were investigated in augmented non-repetition design, with two control (Shabrang and …
