Dimensions of diversity in CIMMYT bread wheat from 1965 to 2000
(CIMMYT, 2000)
To the extent possible, this paper summarizes scientific evidence on the scope of the genetic base in modern bread wheat varieties in the developing world from 1965 to the present, drawing on previously published research ...
Handbook
User's guide for spatial analysis of field variety trials using ASREML
(CIMMYT, 2000)
This manual describes an approach to the spatial analysis of field experiments based on the software package AS residual maximum likelihood (ASREML; Gilmour et al. 1999). It describes common sources of spatial variation ...

Maize production environments revisited: A GIS-based approach
(CIMMYT, 2000)
This publication presents a GIS-based approach for revising the descriptions of global maize production environments, called "mega-environments" (MEs), used by CIMMYT and its partners. A cluster analysis was performed on ...
Report
The AMMI analysis and graphing the biplot
(CIMMYT, 2000)
With the objective of facilitating researchers of CIMMYT and National Programs to compute the AMMI model and the biplot of multi-environment trials, three programs were written in SAS for computing the AMMI analysis and ...

Heterosis and combining ability among CIMMYT's mid-altitude early to intermediate maturing maize (Zea mays L.) populations
(Consiglio per la Ricerca e la sperimentazione in Agricoltura, Unità di Ricerca per la Maiscoltura, 2009)
Maize is an important food crop in sub-Saharan Africa. There is an increasing demand for early maturing maize cultivars even though long-season maize cultivars yield more than early maturing cultivars under favourable ...

Identification of superior quality protein maize hybrids for different mega-environments using the biplot methodology
(Consiglio per la Ricerca e la sperimentazione in Agricoltura, Unità di Ricerca per la Maiscoltura, 2006)
The utilization of site regression models (SREG) on multilocation testing allow the detection of significant differences in the genotype x environment interaction, even though these may not be detected by the analysis of ...

Core Hunter: an algorithm for sampling genetic resources based on multiple genetic measures
(BioMed Central, 2009)
Background: Existing algorithms and methods for forming diverse core subsets currently address either allele representativeness (breeder's preference) or allele richness (taxonomist's preference). The main objective of ...

Herencia del vigor de plántula y su relación con caracteres de planta adulta en líneas endogámicas de maíz tropical
(Colegio de Postgraduados, 2007)
In plant breeding programs seed and seedling vigor are important to assure germination, emergence and initial development of the plant. This study was conducted to determine inheritance type of traits related to maize ...
Article
Sampling strategies for conserving maize diversity when forming core subsets using genetic markers
(Crop Science Society of America (CSSA), 2006)
Core subsets can be formed on the basis of molecular markers and different sampling strategies. This research used genetic markers on three maize data sets for studying 24 stratified sampling strategies to investigate which ...

Diseños experimentales con testigos repetidos
(Colegio de Postgraduados, 2005)
In some stages of the breeding of crops, breeders must select the most promising lines from a very large number of sets of new varieties. Selection is conducted via direct comparison of new varieties that are tested within ...
