Table 2. Heritabilities (H²) for agronomic traits.

H² values are given for each trait, and location combination. DH, days to heading; DM, days to maturity; PH, plant height; PL, panicle length; PBPM, number of primary branches per main shoot panicle; TT, total tillers; CLF, first culm length; CDF, first culm diameter; PW, panicle weight; PY, panicle yield; GY, grain yield; BY, biomass yield; HI, harvest index; GFP, grain filling period; GFR, grain filling rate; BPR, biomass production rate; ALL, measures combined by location.
