Fig. 1. Associations among subtropical white and yellow inbred lines revealed by unweighted paired group method using arithmetic averages cluster analysis based on modified Roger's distance (horizontal axis). Lines were extracted from Pool31 and Pop34 ({blacksquare}), Pool32, Pop42, 47, 402, and 500 ({square}), Pool33 and Pop33 ({blacktriangleup}), Pool34 ({Delta}), Pop501 and 502 ({diamondsuit}), Pop43SR, 44 and 63 ({diamond}), and others (•).

Fig. 2. Principal coordinate analysis based on modified Roger's distance. PC1, PC2, and PC3 are the first, second, and third principal coordinate, respectively. CIMMYT maize lines extracted from three pairs of heterotic populations used in the subtropical hybrid program are Pop33 ({square}) x Pop45 ({blacksquare}), Pop42({circ}) x Pop44 (•), and Pop501 ({Delta}) x Pop502 ({blacktriangleup}).

Fig. 4. Associations among tropical ({Delta}), subtropical ({blacksquare}), midaltitude ({square}), highland ({blacktriangleup}), U.S./Canadian ({diamondsuit}), and European ({diamond}) maize germplasm revealed by unweighted paired group method using arithmetic averages cluster analysis based on modified Roger's distance (horizontal axis).
