“…Mean values (± SE) for grain yield of hybrids within and between heterotic groups based on HSGCA, HGCAMT, and single nucleotide polymorphism-based genetic distance (SNP-based GD) methods under drought, low soil nitrogen (low-N), in optimal conditions and across the three research environments. DISCUSSION In the present study, significant mean squares were detected for G, E, and GEI for most measured traits under drought stress, low N, and in optimal growing conditions and across environments indicating that the test environments were unique and that there was adequate genetic variability among the early yellow hybrids to allow good progress from selection for improvements in most of the traits (Badu-Apraku et al, 2011b;Akinwale et al, 2014). Furthermore, the significant GEI suggested differential responses of the genotypes and the need to identify high-yielding and stable genotypes across test environments (Sabaghnia et al, 2008;Moghaddam and Pourdad, 2009).…”

“…This implied that significant breeding progress could be made using inbreeding, hybridization, backcrossing, and recurrent selection methods for the development of hybrids and synthetics as well as in population improvement. Moreover, these results suggested that the inbreds could be classified into distinct heterotic groups under each research environment, and that superior inbreds with good combining abilities as well as those that can serve as outstanding testers could be identified under the contrasting environments (Akinwale et al, 2014). The presence of significant mean squares for both GCA × E and SCA × E for all measured traits under all research environments with the exception of the SCA × E mean squares for ear height and husk cover under drought, plant and ear heights, EPP, and stay-green characteristic under low-N, plant and ear heights under optimal growing environments and across research environments, confirmed that the parental inbreds exhibited differential performances in hybrid combinations under the contrasting environments in this study.…”
