Genotypes (G) were Resyn lines and hybrids with tester lines Express-ms and Falcon-ms, tested in separate trials at five environments (E) for 2 years (1998–1999 and 1999–2000). Resyn lines were tested at only three locations in 1999–2000. At the Einbeck location, only seed yield was determined

Probability levels are indicated as follows: ** P = 0.01, * P = 0.05; ⁺  P = 0.1
