Description:
MiniMax is an F9-derived line from the cross (AC Colombe x PI 548240 T263) x PI548650 Nattosan. AC Colombe and Nattosan are Maturity Group 00, small seeded, while T263 is a donor of df5df5. T263was derived from Harosoy 63 x PI 257435 (Bernard 1982). The cross from which MiniMax originated was made in the summer of 1998 at Beltsville, MD. MiniMax was advanced by pedigree inbreeding (F7:9), then by single seed decent with selection for early maturity, small stature, and small seed size to the F9 generation in the field and greenhouse at Beltsville, MD.
