title: Gamete selection with an inbred tester.
abstract: A common inbred tester was used to evaluate gametes selected from three complex hybrid populations using two different inbreds as elite lines. The results support STADLER'S contention that gamete selection is an efficient method for extracting superior gene combinations from hybrid populations. The inbred tester increases the resolving power of the method by eliminating extraneous genetic variability and by providing a homogeneous check population for comparative purposes.
