ABSTRACT:
A method is disclosed for efficiently using genic male-sterile maize in hybrid seed production which allows economical maintenance of male-sterile stocks. This method enhances a natural linkage between a selected male-sterile gene and a marker gene conditioning an easily observable trait by deletion and screening to create stocks in which the linkage is effectively complete.
