Variability and interrelationships of traits in two maize synthetic populations were studied in this paper. Independent trials with 80 entries of S1 as well as their HS progenies were arranged according to an incomplete block design (random model). Several agronomic traits were studied during 2001 and 2003, at two locations. Relatively high heritability and variability of traits were determined in both populations. Genetic correlations between grain yield and all other traits were weak to intermediate. The strongest correlations between S1 and HS progenies were determined for grain moisture and the lowest for grain yield.
