0PI 633844Tx772Zea mays L. subsp. mays Texas, United StatesNC7KERNELS2003DEVELOPEDBreeding materialAn Argentine line suitable for use as a parent in hybrid combinations with Iowa Stiff Stalk Synthetic (BSSS) lines. Adapted to Southern U.S. growing areas. Has an intermediate maturity, flowering about 1 to 2 days later than B73 at College Station, TX. Ears thin with 14-16 kernel rows and white cobs. Kernels orange with a flint endopserm texture. Plants short with low ear placement and dark green color. Plant leaves commonly dark purple in V1-V5 vegetative stages. Adult plant leaves flat. Long husks that provide good ear coverage. Stands very well with low incidence of root and stalk lodging. Tassels long with few branches. Main tassel curved. Intermediate pollen shedder. Protein content of 14% crude protein, an increase of 25% compared with other inbreds such as B104. Resistant to common rust (Puccinia sorghi) and susceptible to sugarcane borer (Diatraea sacharalis). Hybrids with BSSS lines have high yield potential and improved agronomic charactertics such as short plant type, low ear placement, early maturity, low moisture content at harvest, and low root and stalk lodging. Seems to provide favorable factors such as husk cover and flint endosperm for reducing the risk of Aspergillus flavus contamination in specific hybrid combinations.1648644PI 633844
