Item type: Journal Article • Journal: South African Journal of Plant and Soil • Authors: T. Hohls --- Department of Genetics, Republic of South Africa G. P.Y. Clarke --- Department of Statistics and Biometry, Republic of South AfricaInterplot competition in plant breeding experiments can substantially reduce the efficiency of plant selection. In diallel experiments on outcrossing species such as maize (Zea mays L.), competing stresses might result from differences in vigour between inbred and hybrid entries. A... -
