Combining Ability of Maize Landraces for Yield and Basic Chemical Composition of Grain by Aleksandar Popović, Vojka Babić, Zoran Čamdžija, Srboljub Živanov, Dragana Branković-Radojčić, Jelena Golijan Pantović, Vesna Perić

“…This study analyzed the combining abilities of 31 maize landraces and two divergent inbred lines–testers (ZPL217 and ZPL-255/75-5) regarding the yield and protein, starch, and lipid content, assessed by Near Infrared Reflectance (NIR) spectroscopy as a fast, non-destructive, and cost-effective method. The general combining ability (GCA) defines the average behavior of genotype in hybrid combination, resulting from additive gene action, so positive GCA values of landraces AN13 and AN197 for protein, AN632 for lipids, and AN594 for starch content indicate that they can be valuable sources of the mentioned properties in quality-oriented maize breeding programs. …”
