Combining Ability of Ear Traits of 6 Maize Inbred Lines from CIMMYT

FU Zhong-ju

Abstract

Using 6 maize inbred lines from CIMMYT and 5 representative domestic maize inbred lines from different heterotic groups as parental lines, 56 cross combinations were made with incomplete diallel design. GCA,SCA,TCA of 7 ear traits were analyzed. The results showed that GCA and SCA had better performance in many traits of CIMBL98 and GEMS13.CIMBL98×340 and GEMS13×Chang 7-2 were good combinations.
