The modern ZP maize hybrids breeding at the Maize Research Institute Zemun Polje, Belgrade - Zemun, begun during the fifties of the 20th century. Collecting of the initial material was the first step in conducting maize breeding programs. The maize inbred line-developing programs from local populations has initiated in 1953. That was beginning of breeding first cycle ZP maize hybrids. From that period up to present time, we have had five cycles of ZP maize hybrids. Each cycle characterize introduction of the new potentially higher yielding hybrids with improved other characteristics. According to results from different studies, the genetic yield potential of ZP maize hybrids over the last 40 years amounted to 100 kg/ha per year. ZP 755 was the first registered maize hybrid in the country in 1964. Total 535 ZP maize hybrids have released by the State Government Commission since 1964 and above 100 ZP maize hybrids have been registered in 15 countries. Since the seventies biotechnology methods have been applied in breeding programs. The main part of biotechnology work is based on the molecular marker application for determining genetic diversity, QTL mapping for drought tolerance and identification of chromosome regions containing QTLs for economically important traits (yield, kernel oil content, etc.).
