Stalk architecture and characteristics associated with stalk fracture in JING724 and JING724A1. a The plant architecture of JING724 and JING724A1. The position indicated by the arrow represents the first internode above the ear where the stalk is easily broken. b The measurement of stalk fracture angle. c Stalk fracture angle of the two lines. d The rind penetrometer strength of the two lines. e The length of the internode. f The stalk circumference (SC) at the bottom (IC_B), middle (IC_M), and top (IC_T) of the stalk with the sample sizes as 20 for both lines
