Phenotyping data

MAZE DH library field experiments

1015 doubled-haploid (DH) lines derived from three European maize landraces (516 KE, 67 LL, 432 PE) were phenotyped for line perse and testcross performance in up to eleven and seven environments, respectively. In total, 25 morphological, agronomic and early-development-related traits were measured. For a detailed description of the data, see Hölker et al. (2019):

Data of line per se evaluations for 9 traits in up to 11 environments for 899 double-haploid lines (471 KE, 402 PE, 26 LL), as used for the GWAS analyses in Mayer et al. 2020 are available via https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.12137142. The dataset is described in detail in Mayer et al. 2020 and Mayer et al.2022.

MAZE DH library platform experiments

Early root architectural traits for 925 doubled-haploid DH lines derived from three European maize landraces (485 KE, 21 LL, 419 PE) were measured under cold conditions in the GrowScreen-PaGe phenotyping platform (Gioia et al. 2016). The dataset is described in Guffanti et al. (in preparation).
