Narrative
BS16 is a yellow semi-dent breeding population that was developed by six cycles of mass selection for adaptiveness in the ETO Composite from Colombia, South America (Crop Sci. 12:203-206). BS16 is adapted to central Iowa and its resistance to feeding by first and second-brood European corn borer (Ostrinia nubilalis Hubner) is above average. BS16 was tested as a cultivar in replicated yield tests (Crop Sci. 12:203-206); it had greater yield, similar grain moisture and stalk lodging, and greater root lodging and dropped ears than Iowa Stiff Stalk Synthetic. The combining ability of BS16 with other breeding populations has not been determined. BS16 is characterized by vigorous plants with large tassels and considerable leaf pubescence, and ears with semi-dent kernels that range from light yellow to light orange. BS16 is of Corn Belt maturity and includes germplasm different from that currently used in most breeding populations.
