Participatory plant-breeding (PPB) methods were used to develop two acceptable, cold-tolerant rice varieties in Nepal: Maehhapuchhre-3 (M-3) and Machhapuchhre-9 (M-9). Both were derived from the cross Fuji 102 Chhomrong Dhan. Following the introduction of these varieties from 1993 to 1998,the cha...

There is a limit to the capacity of any breeding program, and the more crosses that are made, the, smaller The size of each cross. The theory of the optimum number of crosses in inbreeding crops is bristly Reviewed. The theory is unsatisfactory in determining the optimum number of crosses, but mo...
