ABSTRACT
A plethora of maize (Zea mays L.) landraces is stored in gene banks worldwide. However, information about their value in breeding is scarce and strategies for identifying the most promising landraces in prebreeding are largely lacking. This study was conducted to (i) evaluate the testcross performance of 70 European flint landraces in c...
