Maize LZH 2414

LZH 2414 is a grain corn hybrid (Zea mays L.) representing a simple sterile maternal hybrid. The plant is characterized by a straight leaf with a small or medium angle between the blade and stem. Roots at the base of the stem have weak anthocyanin pigmentation, and the husk scales exhibit very weak or absent pigmentation at the base. The tassel flowering and silk emergence time is medium or late, with anthocyanin pigmentation intensity varying from weak to medium. The main stem is higher than the upper lateral branch, which is short, and lateral branches are straight and few. The plant is tall, with a high ratio of upper ear attachment height to total plant height. The ear is long, thick, or very thick, containing medium or numerous rows of kernels. The kernel type is intermediate, closer to dent, with yellow-orange pigmentation on upper and lower parts. Anthocyanin pigmentation intensity of the ear stalk is medium, providing additional resistance and decorative value. Hybrid LZH 2414 belongs to late-maturing corn varieties, allowing its use in regions with longer growing seasons. Due to its characteristics, it is suitable for grain feed purposes, ensuring high yield and grain quality. High resistance to adverse conditions and balanced plant development make this hybrid an attractive choice for farmers focused on feed production.
