Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Heritability was relatively consistent across environments except for seed yield.
- Observation Yield heritability was greatest under favorable growth conditions.
- Observation Yield heritability was least when irrigation alleviated moisture stress.
- Association Environment variation in trait correlations with yield was largely related to moisture stress.
- Observation Crosses had similar correlations of traits with yield except for chemical composition.
- Association Early lodging correlated more strongly with yield in homogeneous than heterogeneous lines.
- Method / resource Trait associations gave inaccurate predictions of yield advance across environments.
- Intervention effect Selecting directly for yield gave maximum actual yield advance.
- Method / resource Early lodging was the most effective correlated selection trait for yield in homogeneous lines.
