Genetic Advance in Grain Yield and Other Traits in Two Tropical Maize Composites Developed via Reciprocal Recurrent Selection

2018-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Assessment of genetic gain in two tropical maize (Zea mays L.) composites improved across years is critical in determining their future improvement and use as sources of inbred lines. Two genetically complementary tropical maize composites were subjected to four cycles of reciprocal recurrent selection (RRS) for grain yield, resistance to foliar diseases, and other desirable agronomic traits using a reciprocal S₁...
