Topics covered include methodologies for forming breeder-targeted core subsets of large seed collections and a specific subset developed based on agronomic evaluations and other data for collections from the Latin American Maize Project (LAMP; 1986-1996). Status reports on collections held in 13 countries of the region are provided, as well as recommendations for further efforts UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10883/582 ER -
