Narrative
BS17 is a yellow dent breeding population that was developed by recombining six versions of Iowa Stiff Stalk Synthetic [BSSS (J. Am. Soc. Agron. 38:108-117)] from recurrent selection programs. These included: BS13(S2)C2 (Crop Sci. 19:755); BSSS(R)C7 (Crop Sci. 14:341); BSSS2(S1)C3 (Crop Sci. 11:140-141;); BSSS2(S2)C2; BSSSC3 selected for stalk rot and first brood European corn borer resistance; BSSSC3 selected for tolerance to larval feeding by western corn rootworm (Diabrotica virgifera Le Conte), northern corn rootworm (D. Iongicornis Say), and southern corn rootworm (D. undecimpunctata howardi Barber) and for root strength. BS13(S2)C2 was developed from BSSS by recurrent selection with Ial3 (double-cross hybrid) as a tester for seven cycles [BSSS(HT) C7] and two cycles of selection based on S2 line performance. [B73 came from BSSS(HT)C5, and B84 came from BSSS (HT)C7.] Selection was primarily for grain yield and resistance to root and stalk lodging in all cycles, with some selection for resistance to first brood European corn borer in the last two cycles. BSSS(R)C7 evolved from seven cycles of reciprocal selection with BSCB1(R)Cn as the opposite population. BSSS2 (PI 550444) was obtained by crossing BSSS(HT)C6 and BSSS(R)C4 and by recurrent selection based on the evaluation of S1 lines to give BSSS2(S1)C3 and of S2 lines to give BSSS2(S2)C2. Grain yield and root and stalk strength have been the primary selection criteria in BSSS(R)C7, BSSS2(S1)C3, and BSSS2(S2)C2, with some selection for first brood European corn borer resistance in the last two cycles (Crop Sci. 12:16-18; Crop Sci. 8:448-451). The six synthetics were mated to give three crosses, which were composited and random-mated for three generations to give BS17. It should be an excellent source for inbred lines to use in the central U.S. Corn Belt. The average date of silk emergence is 1 to 2 days earlier than that of BSSS; thus, the maturity classification is AES800.
