Caption

The red-flavonoid containing corn line used in this research was developed by introgression of a few genetic backgrounds of field corn lines that harbored different genes and gene pathways that lead to creation of flavonoids. This photo shows multiple ears with variable flavonoid contents developed during this breeding project.
