Abstract

Maize (Zea mays L., 2n=20) belong to family poacea and is recognised as “queen of cereals”. Total production of maize is standard greater than wheat and rice in addition being the staple crop to many countries. Maize is without delay fed on in the form of cereal treats, alcohol, feed to animals, and other stuff such as starch and syrup. Conveniently, there are six specific sorts of maize like flint corn, dent corn, pop corn, popcorn, flour corn and sweet corn. Sweet corn is most preferred by way of people while field corn types are fed to animals. It has constantly been higher in involvement to industrial uses. It is viewed very versatile crop with wide adaptability and extensive genetic variability.
