Heterotic grouping of tropical early-maturing maize inbred lines based on combining ability in Striga-infested and Striga-free environments and the use of SSR markers for genotyping (2014, background): “Earlier studies have reported that SSR markers were very useful especially to assign related maize inbreds (rather than unrelated inbreds) into clear heterotic groups (Melchinger, 1999; Menkir et al., 2004; Barata and Carena, 2006).”
Marker-Assisted Plant Breeding: Principles and Practices (2015, background): “In case of maize, heterotic groups are well established (Melchinger 1999); typically, the inbred lines of a heterotic group have high 334 11 Phylogenetic Relationships and Genetic Diversity”
Formation of Heterotic Groups and Understanding Genetic Effects in a Provitamin A Biofortified Maize Breeding Program (2014, background): “With regard to genotype ́ environment interaction for b-carotene, Menkir and Maziya-Dixon (2004) reported this was nonsignificant in a study of 17 genotypes evaluated in three locations and 2 yr.”
