UW-Madison have developed three new corn varieties that display superior yield and grain moisture at harvest.
W2007 is categorized as an Iodent/Oh43/exotic inbred including a parent developed out of Germplasm Enhancement of Maize material. It has produced competitive grain yield and yield/moisture values when combined with B14/B37 and B73 type Stiff Stalk testers.
W2008 is categorized as a mixed non-Stiff Stalk type inbred. It has produced competitive grain yield and yield/moisture values when combined with B14, B73 and mixed type Stiff Stalk testers.
W2011 is categorized as an Iodent inbred. It has produced competitive grain yield and yield/moisture values when combined with B14 and B73 type Stiff Stalk testers.
Lines were selected based on hybrid grain yield, moisture, test weight, and yield/moisture selection index.
