A Preliminary Report on Comparison Test of New Waxy Maize Varieties

We used randomized block design to compare ten introduced waxy maize varieties with ‘Suyunuo No.5’ as control. The results showed that ‘Minhuatiannuo 136’, ‘Huitiannuo 139’, ‘Huantiannuo 251’, ‘Mintiannuo 818’ and ‘Huanaitiannuo 101’ had strong plant vigor, better regularity of population, high adverse-resistant capacity and high yield. Their yields were very significantly higher than that of control by 45.91%, 37.61%, 29.53%, 29.31% and 25.48%, respectively. Therefore, they could be suitable to popularize and demonstrate in Mingxi County.
