Advances in Breeding for Mixed Cropping – Incomplete Factorials and the Producer/Associate Concept

Mixed cropping has been suggested as a resource-efficient approach to meet high produce demands while maintaining biodiversity and minimizing environmental impact. Current breeding programs do not select for enhanced general mixing ability (GMA) and neglect biological interactions within species mix...
