Abstract

We analyzed polymorphism in the parental lines GK26 and Mo17 and testers Od221MV, Od308MV, and Od329 using SSR-analysis. Recombinant inbred lines (RILs) from populations F4 and F6 were genotyped at ten polymorphic loci. Allelic compositions and allele frequencies at microsatellite loci were investigated in parental lines and testers, and the best highly heterotic hybrids and their molecular genetic formulae were derived. The allelic composition of microsatellites were investigated in RILs and high-yield hybrids for the best combining ability parameters.
