Heterosis for oil content in maize populations andhybrids of high quality protein

Heterosis for oil content in maize populations andhybrids of high quality protein

This study aimed to evaluate QPM populations and their crosses for grain oil content to determine theheterosis and its components. Ninety-six hybrids and their 21 parents were analyzed and separated in the groups dent andflint, in the partial diallelic/diallel intergroup scheme. The oil content was...
