Genetic structure analysis and identifying key founder inbred lines in diverse elite sub-tropical maize inbred lines

Abstract Understanding the genetic relationships between the key founder inbred lines and derived inbred lines could provide insight into the breeding history and the structure of genetic diversity of the available elite inbred lines with desirable target traits. The maize improvement program at the...
