Multi-Traits Selection of Maize Hybrids under Sole-Crop and Multiple-Crops with Soybean

Agronomy, 2023
Multi-trait selection is very helpful in plant breeding programs. This technique can select genotypes for specific traits. Yield performance of maize hybrids is influenced by genotype-by-environment interactions (GEIs).
