An accurate prediction of maize crosses using diallel analysis and best linear unbiased predictor (BLUP)
A major obstacle in corn (Zea mays L.) breeding programs is how to obtain strains which, when combined, ensure increased productivity in all crop characteristics. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the prediction efficiency of hybrid maize using diallel analysis and the best line...
