Predicted Genetic Gains from Targeted Recombination in Elite Biparental Maize Populations

Targeted recombination is the ability to induce or select for specific recombination points on chromosomes. A first study with the intermated B73 × Mo17 maize ( L.) population showed that targeted recombination doubles the predicted gains for yield and other agronomic traits. Our objective was to as...
