Statistical and Biometrical Techniques in Plant Breeding
11.1 Topcross or Inbred- Variety Cross Perhaps this is the simplest model of
mating design that can provide useful information for preliminary rapid screening
of genetic stocks. Simplest it is in the two senses: (i) It involves the lowest
crossing ...

Enhancing Genetic Gain in Maize with Tropical Germplasm, QTL ...
Naturally, choosing a more modern tester would improve topcross yield, but not
necessarily relative yield responses. To determine the current range in
combining ability, ninety-six S1 families were sampled from the latest cycles of
each ...

Correlation of line ASI under SS with topcross GY and AGY was significant only
under SS conditions. Line AD showed a negative correlation with topcross GY
under SS and a positive correlation under WW. Line SEN under SS was

Handbook of Maize: Genetics and Genomics
Early generation testing occurs around the S2 generation, which involves forming
topcross hybrids between the S2 lines and an inbred line from each of the main
heterotic patterns. The resulting topcross hybrids are evaluated in a limited ...

Specialty Corns, Second Edition
The Topcross method consists of mixing seed from a cytoplasmic male sterile
single cross hybrid with normal oil levels with seed of a high-oil male fertile
pollinator (usually a synthetic variety). When this seed mixture is planted, about
92 to ...

Corn: Origin, History, Technology, and Production
Plant specialty corn hybrids or TopCross HOC after soybean or forage legumes.
Grain yields of corn grown in rotation with soybean will typically be about 10%
higher than continuous corn. This yield advantage is often much more
pronounced ...

Plant Breeding Reviews, Part 1: Long-term Selection: Maize
The increase in oil levels of Topcross seed was due to a slight increase in germ
dry weight, an increase in oil concentration in the germ, and a small reduction in
endosperm size (Lambert et al. 1998). Thomison et al. (2002) evaluated
Topcross ...

Intensified Plant Breeding and Seed Production in Poland
In 1971-72 numerous varietal topcross hybrids were tested at Smolice and
almost all of them gave a yield below the Darikowskie Ziote cultivar, a signal that
early testing has limited importance. We concluded that testing should start when
the ...
