Developing Heterotic Groups for Successful Hybrid Breeding in Perennial Ryegrass
Perennial ryegrass (<i>Lolium perenne</i> L.), an important forage grass species in temperate regions, is genetically improved by population breeding. Although valued for their broad genetic base, the resulting synthetic varieties only partially exploit heterosis. Hybrid breeding offers...
