Genotype by Environment Interactions and Selection Responses of Two Maize Populations to Reciprocal Recurrent Selection in a High-Yield Environment (Corn)

Abstract

dc:description

A selection program using reciprocal recurrent selection procedures in maize (Zea mays L.) involving intra- and interpopulation selection were used for BS10 and RSSSC. Intrapopulation selection included phenotypic mass selection for multiple leaf and stalk-rot diseases resistance and S(,1) family selection for grain yield in a high-yield environment. Interpopulation improvement involved selection of testcrosses of S(,1) family x inbred tester in a high-yield environment.
