EG 7169 is an early-maturing corn (Zea mays L.) variety developed by EURALIS SEMENCES from France. The plant is characterized by medium height and medium leaf width, with a slight leaf blade curvature and a small angle between the leaf and stem. The sheath of the first leaf has a weak anthocyanic coloration, and the roots at the stem are moderately colored. Flowering occurs in early-to-medium terms, with weak or absent anthocyanic coloration of the spikelet scales and stamens. The tassel has a short main axis, positioned above the upper lateral branch and forming a small angle with it. Primary lateral branches are of medium length and slightly curved, with a small number. The EG 7169 corn cob is short, slender, and weakly conical, with a medium-length stalk. The kernels have an intermediate type, closer to flint, with yellow-orange upper part and orange lower part. The number of rows on the cob is low, and the cob core lacks anthocyanic coloration. These characteristics make the variety attractive for cultivation in various regions, ensuring stable and high-quality grain. EG 7169 is recommended for cultivation across a wide range of climatic conditions due to its adaptability and resistance to adverse factors. The variety suits agronomic technologies aimed at achieving early corn harvests with good grain quality. Due to its morphological features, it easily withstands mechanized harvesting and responds well to modern plant protection methods.
