ABSTRACT:
A class of corn plants has been developed that are superior as pollinators in the TopCross.RTM. Grain Production System. The plants of this class are larger and more vigorous than many of the current TC Blend.RTM. pollinators. The seed that produces this new class of TC Blend.RTM. pollinators is produced at greater yields and is of greater vigor and quality than that of many current TC Blend.RTM. pollinators. Additionally, the means whereby the seed of this class of plants is produced enables the rapid generation of a wide range of maturities of TC Blend.RTM. pollinators. This greatly expands both the geographic range and the genetic breadth of the TopCross.RTM. grain production system.
