Efficiency of selection per se and in single-cross hybrids for disease resistance in maize

Plant breeding strategies are constantly refined to increase efficiency during the selection process. Consequently, the aims of this study were to examine genetic control and efficiency of selection based on the per se performance of maize lines and based on hybrid performance in reaction to white spot, common rust, and ear rot diseases in maize breeding programs.

Genome-wide prediction of maize single-cross performance, considering non-additive genetic effects

    J.P.R. Santos, H.D. Pereira, R.G. Von Pinho, L.P.M. Pires, R.B. Camargos and M. Balestre

The prediction of single-cross hybrids in maize is a promising technique for optimizing the use of financial resources in a breeding program. This study aimed to evaluate Genomic Best Linear Unbiased Predictors models for hybrid prediction and compare them with the Bayesian Ridge Regression, Bayes A, Bayesian LASSO, Bayes C, Bayes B, and Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces Regression models, with..

Indirect selection for resistance to ear rot and leaf diseases in maize lines using biplots

    G.S. Pereira, R.B. Camargos, M. Balestre, R.G. Von Pinho and W.M. C. Melo

Leaf disease and ear rot have caused reductions in maize yield in Brazil and other producer countries. Therefore, the aims of this study were to analyze the association between husked ear yield and the severity of maize white spot, gray leaf spot, helminthosporium, and ear rot caused by Fusarium verticillioides and Diplodia maydis using biplots in a mixed-model approach. The responses of 238 li.. Read More»
