Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is widely used in heterosis breeding of crops, including sorghum. In breeding work, “Rossorgo” uses early maturing source material adapted to the conditions of cultivation in the Lower Volga region, a collection CMS-lines

Biochemical and physical kernel properties of a standard maize hybrid in different TopCross™ Blends
A pilot experiment was undertaken in order to examine high oil populations of maize (Zea mays L.) to be used as pollinators in TopCross blends with commercial ZP341 standard hybrid. Five high oil populations (HOPs) from the Maize Research Institute (MRI)

On Combining Exact and Approximative Proceedings for Testing Problems in Unbalanced Mixed Linear Models [PDF]
A method for constructing approximative tests for arbitrary linear hypotheses on variance components in unbalanced mixed linear models is derived. The idea of cell mean models is used to derive independent and 2-distributed mean squares.

Optimizing selection efficiency in maize for the drought prone eastern and southern African environments [PDF]
Breeding for stress tolerance is the most cost effective way of avoiding drought-induced yield reduction in the tropics. Optimizing breeding for drought tolerance at CIMMYT could enhance the effectiveness of this multi-national breeding program and ...

The objective of this study was to evaluate four selection indexes and best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) for predicting genetic gain in maize hybrids used for silage. The genetic gain was compared between four selection indexes and BLUP.
