contents Let $G$ be a plane elementary bipartite graph whose infinite face is forcing. We provide a bijection between the set of maximal hypercubes of its resonance graph and the set of maximal resonant sets of $G$, which generalizes a main result in [MATCH Commun. Math. Comput. Chem. 68 (2012) 65-77], where $G$ was only considered as an elementary benzenoid graph without nice coronenes. For a special case when $G$ is a peripherally 2-colorable graph, it follows that there is a bijection between the set of maximal hypercubes of its resonance graph and the set of maximal independent sets of a tree that is the inner dual of $G$. We then show that the resonance graph of a plane bipartite graph $G$ is a daisy cube if and only if it is the simplex graph of the complement of a forest. Finally, we characterize trees with at most 5 maximal independent sets to determine daisy cubes that are simplex graphs of the complements of trees and having at most five maximal vertices.
