The cross combinations of two waxy maize cultivars Jinuo 3 and Jikenuo 18 were used as experimental materials,and random block test was used to analyze some main agronomic traits such as plant traits,ear traits,yield,appearance quality and main cooking quality.The results showed that there was no significant difference in plant characters,ear characters and yield between the two waxy maize varieties,which indicated that the inheritance of nucleus was dominant.There were some differences in resistance and cooking quality between the two waxy maize varieties,which indicated that the above characters were affected by cytoplasmic inheritance to some extent.
