Improvement in genetic characteristics and oil yield of selected soybean progenies from octuple crosses
The objective of the present study was to evaluate 44 soybean octuple crosses in the F4:3[8] and F5:3[8] generations in order to select progenies superior for seed oil yield (OY) and other important agronomic characteristics.Octuple crosses were hybridized in a chain mating system.In one group, crosses were carried out for three generations with th
