Abstract: | It was studied the botanical morphology difference of CIMMYT forage and hybrid and backcross offspring with hybrid combination of CIMMYT forage and four common maize inbred lines as study material .The result indicated, the CIMMYT forage characteristics of the overgrowth, strong tillerity and high yield could inherit to the offspring ,and the inherit ability was higher. It was obviously difference of seedling, plant, and its grow habit, flower apparatus and seed between CIMMYT forage and common maize. The hybrid offspring of CIMMYT forage and common maize keep the strong trait of growing and development, but the flower and seed character were look like common maize. The backcross offspring were not different to common maize besides with some tillers, distinct multi-ear and atavism. |
