Abstract:

Research on forage maize can effectively promote the development of animal husbandry. In order to accelerate the progress of forage maize, this paper reviewed the regulation mechanism and breeding process of quality protein maize. Meanwhile, the characteristics and breeding process of high protein silage maize were introduced in detail. The problems existing in the development of quality protein maize and high protein silage maize were pointed out, and some relevant suggestions were put forward in order to promote the structural reform of maize from food crop to feed crops in China.

Key words: forage maize, quality protein maize, regulation mechanism, high protein silage maize
