Narrative
NOSS Syn 2 is a unique maize synthetic variety created at NDSU for breeding programs developing short-season Stiff Stalk (SS). NOSS Syn 2 is a unique short-season SS population version that was developed by recombining 8 inbred lines with high general and specific combining ability for stalk lodging resistance and grain yield. Inbred lines were tested in early and late-generation hybrid multi-environment hybrid trials with non-SS testers across multiple years. NOSS Syn 2 was also tested in multi-environment trials and has shown high grain yield and above average grain quality per se and in hybrid combinations with temperate and tropical populations. NOSS Syn 2 is undergoing reciprocal full-sib recurrent selection with North Dakota Lancaster (NOL) population. Derived lines from original and improved population have shown excellent combining ability for the commercial production of non-GMO short-season hybrids.
