M. de aAnalysis of diallel cross from the evaluation of maize populations across environments. c2001 aEleven open-pollinated maize (Zea mays L.) populations were crossed in a diallel scheme and evaluated in five locations in the State of Parana: (1) Ponta Grossa, [2] Pato Branco, [3] Palotina, [4] Londrina and [5] Guarapuava. Two commercial hybrids (P 3230 and BR 201) were included as checks in the experiments, thus completing 68 entries (11 parents, 55 hybrids and 2 checks). The objetctive of this study was to obtain information about the performance per se, heterotic pattern and combining ability of these populations for the choice of the most promising for use in recurrent selection and hybrid development programs. aheterosis apopulation aMilho aPopulação aSeleção Recorrente aZea Mays aAnálise dialélica aDiallel cross aHeterose aMaize aParaná1 aMIRANDA FILHO, J.
