Methods of testing inbred lines of maize in crossbred combinations
1932
Jenkins, M.T. | Brunson, A.M.
Coefficients of correlation for a number of different characters were determined between the mean performance of the single crosses of inbred lines of corn and the performance of these lines in crosses with a commercial variety or with a varietal mixture. Coefficients of correlation also were determined between the mean performance of the crosses of several inbred lines used in two series of crosses. From a comparison of these correlations it is concluded that crosses with open-pollinated varieties may be used efficiently in the preliminary testing of new lines.
