Other claims from this paper (13)
- Observation Inbreeding depression was lower in advanced synthetics and lowest in SSS(HT)C7.
- Observation SSS lines had 39.1% inbreeding depression.
- Observation SSS(HT)C7 lines had 27.8% inbreeding depression.
- Observation CBS lines had 38.3% inbreeding depression.
- Observation CBS(S)C4 lines had 32.5% inbreeding depression.
- Observation SSS(HT)C7 S1 lines yielded 9.3% more than SSS lines.
- Observation CBS(S)C4 S1 lines yielded 27.2% more than CBS lines.
- Observation CBS(S)C4 and CBS S1 lines had comparable yield ranges.
- Observation SSS(HT)C7 yielded slightly less than SSS.
- Observation CBS(S)C4 yielded approximately 19% more than CBS.
- Observation Maximum S1 yield approximated parental-source yield in all populations.
- Observation Two CBS(S)C4 S1 lines had yields comparable to a double-cross hybrid check.
- Recommendation Increasing parental-source population yields appears an effective means to increase inbred-line yields.
