Abstract excerpt
We estimated the genetic gains of the 12th cycle of reciprocal recurrent selection for maize traits of agronomic interest. We used 23 ISSR molecular markers in an attempt to maximize genetic variability among and within populations based on selection of S(1) progenies. To this end, 138 full-sib families were evaluated in a randomized block design in two environments (the municipalities of Campos dos...
