Use of the single-seed descent method of selection in groundnut breeding in Zimbabwe

1985

Hildebrand, G.L.

The single-seed descent method of selection has proved successful in Zimbabwe where two new cultivars have been released after 10 and 8 years of development. The ease of handling segregating populations and rapid generation advance are two of the more important benefits. This method could be appropriate for groundnut breeding in developing countries. In addition, lesser developed programs could benefit from selection, in their own environments, within duplicate populations provided by more developed programs
