Combining ability, heterosis and genetic diversity in tropical maize (Zea mays L.) under stress and non-stress conditions (2011, background): “Warburton et al. (2002), Xia et al. (2004, 2005) found a higher level of diversity among tropical maize inbred lines, with average number of alleles per locus ranging from 4.9 to 7.7.”
Conserving and Enhancing Maize Genetic Resources as Global Public Goods- A Perspective from CIMMYT (2010, background): “…(iii) correlation between the genetic distance and hybrid performance, heterosis, and specifi c combining ability (Melchinger, 1999; Betrán et al., 2003), and (iv) comparison of genetic diversity among diff erent groups of maize germplasm (Liu et al., 2003; Tarter et al., 2004; Xia et al., 2005).”
Genetic Diversity in CIMMYT Nontemperate Maize Germplasm: Landraces, Open Pollinated Varieties, and Inbred Lines (2008, methodology): “Finally, 261 CMLs adapted to tropical (155 inbreds), subtropical (73 inbreds), midaltitude (22 inbreds), and highland (11 inbreds) growing conditions were chosen for this study and a detailed description is published in Xia et al. (2004, 2005) .”
