Marker-Assisted Backcross Breeding of Drought-Tolerant Maize Lines Transformed by Vacuolar H<sup>+</sup>-Pyrophosphatase Gene (<i>AnVP1</i>) from <i>Ammopiptanthus nanus</i>

Maize is highly sensitive to water deficit but has high transpiration and biomass production, leading to a substantial water demand. Genetic engineering can overcome reproductive isolation and utilize drought-tolerant genes from distant species. <i>Ammopiptanthus nanus</i> is a relic of...
