ABSTRACT
Introgression of elite exotic maize (Zea mays L.) germplasm into breeding programs would increase genetic variation within heterotic groups and counter the narrowing of the Chinese germplasm base. This study measured the performance of exotic populations in northern China to allow use of elite germplasm to broaden the genetic base of Ch...
