The Big BIT maize experiment: A large multi-location, multi-year, multi-tester, multi-population predictive breeding validation study. [PDF]
Abstract The Big Breeding Innovation Team (Big BIT) maize (Zea mays L.) experiment was one of the largest genomic data‐informed predictive breeding validation studies ever conducted. The experiment was a multi‐location, multi‐year, multi‐tester, multi‐population study involving F1 maize hybrids created by crossing individual doubled haploids to inbred ...

Aflatoxin Accumulation in a Maize Diallel Cross
Aflatoxins, produced by the fungus Aspergillus flavus, occur naturally in maize. Contamination of maize grain with aflatoxin is a major food and feed safety problem and greatly reduces the value of the grain.
