Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Selection cycles differed significantly in grain yield and yield components.
- Observation Cycle five had the highest grain yield of 9699.30 kg.ha-1.
- Observation Cycle five yield increased 34.88% relative to the original population.
- Association Grains per ear and grain weight regressed significantly linearly on selection cycle with R2 above 80%.
- Recommendation The authors conclude modified mass selection can improve grain yield and yield components in synthetic corn.
