GENETIC VARIANCE ESTIMATES FROM DIFFERENT MATING SYSTEMS IN A VARIETY OF CORN (ZEA MAYS L.)
Abstract
The type of gene action controlling the inheritance of quantitative traits such as yield of corn has long been a question of academic interest and practical importance. In the past 15 years numerous studies (Gardner, 1961; Lonnquist, 1949, 1951; Lonnquist and Gardner, 1961; Lonnquist and McGill, 1956; McGill and Lonnquist, 1955) have indicated the presence of significant amounts of additive genetic variance in open-pollinated varieties of corn.
