Selection indexes in the simultaneous increment of yield components in topcross hybrids of green maize

Abstract: The objective of this work was to define the most suitable selective strategy for the simultaneous increment of yield components of green maize, by comparing three selection indexes weighted by economic weights and by the REML/BLUP method, in the assessment of predicted genetic gains for traits of interest. An experiment with 75 topcross hybrids from partially inbred S1 lines of green maize was carried out in Jataí, in the state of Goiás, Brazil, using a randomized complete block design, with four replicates. … Show more

“…Populations I and IV did not show a significant difference at 5% probability level by Tukey test in comparison to the control hybrid AG1051, which confirms the existence of progenies with good production performance that composed these populations and also demonstrates the efficiency of the selection method, based on the Selection Index of Mulamba and Mock (1978), as also observed by Berilli et al (2013), Freitas et al (2013) and Candido et al (2020). This behavior is in line with the prediction of gains, since strategies I and IV showed better gain expectations for traits related to production components.…”

“…In the literature, many indices have been proposed for the selection of promising genotypes in different environments to obtain stable, high-yielding and stress-tolerant genotypes (Cruz et al, 2014). Development of a selection based-index can be performed using various methods to assist breeders for simultaneous selection of multiple traits related to grain yield that aims to obtain high-genetic gains in each selection cycle (Candido et al, 2020). Among the available indices, we cite the classical index proposed by Smith (1936) and Hazel (1943) and the selection base index of Williams (1962) as parametric indices.…”

“…To obtain more reliable gains with selection, tools that allow inferences about genotypic values should be chosen, which allows the breeder to select genotypes more accurately (Candido et al, 2020b). In this sense, the use of REML/BLUP methodology can be considered an appropriate procedure, since it allows greater accuracy in estimates of genetic parameters and prediction of genotypic values (Resende, 2016).…”
