1. Maize: Key agricultural crop in food security and sovereignty in a future with water scarcity
RESUMO O objetivo nesta revisão foi discutir a importância da cultura do milho na atualidade e o papel crucial que pode desempenhar no futuro para a produção de alimentos em cenários de deficiência hídrica, bem como a importância de conservar suas cultivares crioulas, que detêm uma parcela considerável dessa reserva de variabilidade genética. As p

2. Agronomic performance of maize hybrids under supplemental irrigation depths
RESUMO A escolha do híbrido de milho, considerando o nível de tecnologia e o manejo de irrigação, contribui com a melhoria da produtividade e da eficiência do uso da água. Assim, objetivou-se neste trabalho avaliar a influência de lâminas de irrigação nos componentes de produção, na produtividade, na máxima eficiência técnica e na eficiência

3. Genetic improvement of silage maize: predicting genetic gain using selection indexes and best linear unbiased prediction
RESUMO O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar quatro índices de seleção e o método BLUP na predição de ganhos genéticos em híbridos de milho para silagem. Foram comparados quatro índices de seleção e o método BLUP na predição de ganhos genéticos. Foram avaliados 19 híbridos topcrosses, e cinco testemunhas em delineamento experimental de blocos

4. High grain quality accessions within a maize drought tolerant core collection
Maize (Zea mays L.) landraces are an important source of genes for improving commercial germplasm. Today, drought tolerance and grain quality are major challenges in maize cultivation due to climatic changes and population growth. The Maize Research Institute genebank has a drought tolerant collection, which includes 13 landraces (from the former Yugoslavia)

5. New inoculants on maize silage fermentation
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of bacterial inoculants at two inoculation rates on chemical and biological characteristics of maize silage. The treatments consisted of two inoculating rates (5 and 6 log cfu g-1 of forage) for each strain of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) identified as Lactobacillus buchneri, L. hilgardii, or L. plantarum.

6. Mapeamento Bayesiano de múltiplos caracteres: efeitos pleiotrópicos no estudo da herança dos componentes da produção em milho / Bayesian mapping of multiple traits: pleiotropic effects in studying the inheritance of yield components in maize
Pleiotropy has played an important role in understanding quantitative traits. However, the extensiveness of this effect in the genome and its consequences for plant improvement have not been fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to identify pleiotropic quantitative trait loci (QTL) in maize using Bayesian multiple interval mapping. Additionally, we sou

7. Epistasia para a produção de grãos e caracteres da planta em milho / Epistasis for yield and plant traits in maize
It is known that epistasis may have important effects in the populations dynamics and in the evolutionary process of the species, and that it is involved in manifestation of important biological phenomena, such as overdominance, inbreeding depression and heterosis. However, epistasis is considered one of the more complex aspects of quantitative genetics sinc

8. Seleção genômica ampla e novos métodos de melhoramento do milho / Genome wide selection and new methods of maize breeding
The evaluation for nutrient efficiency use (UE) generally use destructive methods of the plant, not allowing, depending on the population genetic structure, using those identified as superior in hybridizations. Consequently, there is a reduction in the potential gains with selection. Additionally, some conventional breeding methods, such as the recurrent sel

9. Combining ability of twelve maize populations.
Genetic progress depends on germplasm quality and breeding methods. Twelve maize populations and their crosses were evaluated to estimate combining ability and potential to be included as source populations in breeding programs. Plant height, point of insertion of the first ear, number of ears per plant, number of grains per ear, root and stalk lodging and g

10. Melhoramento vegetal participativo com ênfase na eficiência nutricional.
ABSTRACT: Participatory plant breeding uses a concept that joint formal (official researches institutions) and informal sector (farmers communities), combining the capabilities and the knowledge of both, and farmer's experiences, practices, and preferences. The goal is to join the yield improvement exploring the availabel farmer's agrobiodiversity and introd

12. Capacidade de combinação e depressão por endogamia em populações de milho crioulo
The maize landraces are genotypes that have special features like wide genetic variability, which is noticeable through the color of grain, plant architecture and yield of their representatives. By presenting these different qualitative characteristics becomes important to perform a quantitative characterization of these genotypes for use in maize pre-breedi
