Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to maize plants with a genome comprising a unique allele profile associated with the corresponding QTLs contributing to the expression of a variety of phenotypic traits of economic interest selected from the group of grain yield, grain moisture at harvest, early and late root lodging, stalk lodging, common smut incidence, fusarium ear rot incidence, sulcotrione resistance, and tassei architecture. The invention further relates to method for obtaining such a plant as well as assays and screening methods for identifying plants with the desired profile.
