Bayesian analysis of quantitative traits in popcorn (Zea mays L.) through four cycles of recurrent selection

A Bayesian analysis of genetic parameters for quantitative traits was carried out in full-sib families of popcorn through four cycles (C5, C6, C7, and C8) of recurrent selection. The parameters of Bayesian model were estimated using the independence chain algorithm. Grain yield and plant height were...
