Combining ability, heterosis and genetic diversity in tropical maize (Zea mays L.) under stress and non-stress conditions (2011, result): “The results obtained in this study are similar to those reported in temperate maize (Senior et al. 1998; Reif et al. 2003a; Smith et al. 1997) and tropical maize (Xia et al. 2005).”
Genetic Diversity among CIMMYT Maize Inbred Lines Investigated with SSR Markers: II. Subtropical, Tropical Midaltitude, and Highland Maize Inbred Lines and their Relationships with Elite U.S. and European Maize (2005, background): “…breed- ment is consistent with previous studies in which approximately 90% of molecular variance was found withining programs (Vasal et al., 1999; Reif et al., 2003a) and should continue to be exploited and even increased. and 10% among the CIMMYT tropical and subtropical populations,…”
Marker-Assisted Plant Breeding: Principles and Practices (2015, methodology): “The use of GD estimated from SSR marker data allowed the classification of seven tropical maize populations into the established as well as some new heterotic groups (Reif et al. 2003).”
