Sparse testcrossing for early-stage genomic prediction of general combining ability to increase genetic gain in maize hybrid breeding programs. [PDF]
Sparse testcrossing is an effective strategy for increasing both short- and long-term genetic gain in hybrid breeding programs. Maize hybrid breeding programs aim to develop new hybrid varieties by crossing genetically distinct parents from different ...

Griffing's Methods Comparison for General and Specific Combining Ability in Cucumber [PDF]
A comparison among two forms of half-diallel analysis was made. The different half-diallel techniques used were Griffing's model I, method 2 and 4. These methods of diallel analysis were found to be interrelated. However, as Griffing's model I, method 4 partitioned heterosis into different components as well as gave information about combining ability ...

General and specific combining ability in tropical winter cauliflower [PDF]
ABSTRACT Few Brazilian cauliflower cultivars have shown to be adapted to tropical winter conditions. In addition, studies to obtain hybrids adapted to our winter conditions, from breeding lines originating from tropical regions, are scarce. The objective of this work was to estimate the combining ability of cauliflower breeding lines.

Developing bread wheat genotypes for terminal heat tolerance is a critical objective for future breeding approaches. The line x tester mating analysis is one of the best approaches to demonstrate the appropriateness of the bread wheat genotypes for selection programs. For this purpose, nine genotypes viz.
