Phenotypic distributions, cultivating locations, and heritability estimation of maize ear traits. (A) Weight: ear weight, (B) Length: ear length, (C) Rank number: ear rank number, (D) Row number: ear row number, (E) Location map created using R package “maps”, and (F) Estimated heritability due to different genetic effect for each of the maize ear traits. E1: Urbana, E2: Aurora, E3: Clayton, E4: Homestead. P-values obtained from multiple pairwise-comparisons between the means of groups (locations) using Tukey Honest Significant Differences (Tukey HSD) were given in (A)-(D). Red points in (E) are the experimental sites, where the NAM population was cultivated
