In fine, Amaizing will result in the:

  • Development of a large set of new molecular markers from the resequencing of lines and from the first exploration of the epigenome
  • Characterization of genetic resources (flint and dent panels)
  • Development of novel breeding methods such as genomic selection
  • Evaluation of the impact of nitrogen treatments, tolerance to drought and frost, and heterosis
  • Determination of a top list of genes or regions in the maize genome that will show a strong contribution to stress tolerance or heterosis
  • Validation of new breeding methods, and agricultural practices to support a paradigm shift in sustainable maize production in France and beyond;
  • Improvement of bioinformatics platform to accelerate association genetics and trait discovery and provide breeders with user-friendly tools to support decision making;
