More bang for your buck: potential gains through optimizing maize breeding schemes in sub-Saharan Africa by Davison Chaingeni, Ronica Mukaro, Clay Sneller, Jill E. Cairns, Lennin Musundire, Biswanath Das, Olivia Odiyo, Sammy Madahana, Purity Mazibuko, Washington Mubvereki, Boddupali M. Prasanna, Dumisani Kutywayo

“…The objective of this study was to demonstrate that an easy-to-use deterministic model and a breeding costing tool could identify key modifications to improve the efficiency of breeding within the Zimbabwean national maize breeding program. The current program uses pedigree inbreeding, with a 4–1–1 tester scheme, and relatively low selection intensity. …”
