Table 3. Genetic and Pearson’s rank correlations of end-use quality traits for the recombinant inbred lines (RILs) population derived from a cross between Glenn and Traverse across all environments. Values in bold displayed above the diagonal indicate genetic correlation coefficients, and values under the diagonal show Pearson correlation coefficients.
