Selection of Drought Tolerant Maize Hybrids Using Path Coefficient Analysis and Selection Index.

Pakistan journal of biological sciences : PJBS - 1 Jan 2017

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In drought-prone environments, direct selection for yield is not adequate because of the variable environment and genotype x environment interaction. Therefore, the use of secondary traits in addition to yield has been suggested. The relative usefulness of secondary traits as indirect selection criteria for maize grain yield is determined by the magnitudes of their genetic variance, heritability and...
