Optimizing field management of corn inbreds for
maximum seed production and minimum risk of outcrossing
|
|
| |
Provides detailed calculations to help manage
specific combinations of male and female inbreds for maximum seed
production and minimum risk of outcrossing. It includes most of the
management practices used in commercial seed fields including population
densities, silking and anthesis dates, female to male row ratio, silk
number and velocity of silk emergence, pollen production per
tassel, and male 'chopping date'.
|
|
 |
|
| |
Input flowering characteristics for the
female and male inbred pair along with selectable management options
to observe the expected numbers
of seeds produced and the associated
inherent risk of outcrossing.
|
|
 |
|
| |
Compare scenarios to find the
combination that maximizes seed production and minimizes risk of
outcrossing for each inbred pair.
