Assessment of testcross performance and genetic diversity of yellow endosperm maize lines derived from adapted x exotic backcrosses

Introduction of exotic maize (Zea mays L.) into adapted tropical germplasm may enhance genetic variability and lead to greater progress from selection. The first objective of this study was to determine if yellow endosperm lines derived from adapted x exotic backcrosses contain exotic alleles that a...
