Subject:
Bayesian theory; corn; genotype; hybrids; models; uncertainty
Abstract:
... The development of lines with high performance and stability for synthesis of superior hybrids is the most expensive and time-consuming phase in maize hybrid breeding. Several times, due to available resources, only a part of possible hybrid combinations is tested. Therefore, the breeder needs methods that allow the evaluation of genotypes untested in the field. This work was carried out with the ...

Abstract:
... Maize has been targeted as one of the major crops for provitamin enrichment and delivery because it is an inexpensive and easily available source of food for millions of people in sub-Saharan Africa. Although tropical-adapted yellow maize contains provitamin-A carotenoids that can be converted into vitamin A in the human body, they represent less than 25% of the total carotenoids in most widely gr ...
