The optimum allocation of breeding resources is crucial for the efficiency of breeding programmes. The objectives were to (i) compare selection gain ΔGk for finite and infinite sample sizes, (ii) compare ΔGk and the probability of identifying superior hybrids (Pk), and (iii) determine the optimum allocation of the number of hybrids and test locations in hybrid maize breeding using doubled haploids. Infinite compared to finite sample sizes led to almost identical optimum allocation of test resources, but to an inflation of ΔGk. This inflation decreased as the budget and the number of finally selected hybrids increased. A reasonable Pk was reached for hybrids belonging to the q = 1% best of the population. The optimum allocations for Pk(q) and ΔGkwere similar, indicating that Pk(q) is promising for optimizing breeding programmes.

In the course of marker-assessted selection for the blast resistance gene Pi-b, among 372 rice Oryza sativa L. doubled haploids DH0 geterozygous plant was identified. In the offspring (11 doubled haploids DH1), only Pi-b resistance allele was revealed. The reason for the appearance of false heterozygosity is discussed. By analogy with mixoploidy, an explanation is proposed for the phenomenon of somatic tissues mixogeny.
