Subject field(s)
  • Seed Plants (Spermatophyta)
  • Genetics
  • Grain Growing
CONT

A corn hybrid is produced when the pollen from one inbred line is used to pollinate the silks of another inbred line... the plants produced from hybrid seeds tend to be more robust with improved characteristics, including increased grain yield.

DEF

The F 1 cross of an inbred line with a variety.

Domaine(s)
  • Cultures (Agriculture)
  • Génétique
CONT

Les méthodes modernes d'amélioration des espèces allogames [...] comportent trois phases. Dans une première étape, on isole les lignées par autofécondation [...] Dans une seconde étape, on recherche entre les lignées, les meilleures combinaisons hybrides; cela est réalisé successivement à l'aide de tests de valeur hybride générale (croisement de chaque lignée avec un testeur commun, encore appelé test «top cross».) [...] Dans une troisième étape est alors mise au point la variété nouvelle [...]

Record 4 1999-11-08

English

Subject field(s)
  • Plant and Crop Production
  • Genetics
CONT

The 3-way hybrid involves a total of 3 inbred lines. Two inbreds are first used to generate a single cross hybrid. The single cross hybrid is then used as the female parent in a cross with a third inbred line, resulting in the 3-way cross. As with the double-cross hybrid, individuals in the population of the 3-way cross are not all the same genetically, and thus vary phenotypically. Seed is cheaper than for the single cross hybrid, for the female parent from which the 3-way hybrid seed is harvested is a single cross hybrid.
