Nine cycles of mass selection for increasing oil content in two maize (Zea mays L.) synthetics

The objectives of this study were to estimate changes in oil content, grain yield, percentage of broken plants and changes in yield components in the maize populations DS7u and YuSSSu. As estimations were performed at C0 and C9 for both populations, it was possible to observe changes occurring follo...
