  6. GEM-Ames Information Management • Handout: GEM 2009 data summaries and reports • GEM CD contains • Allelic diversity data • Annual report • Disease data from cooperators • Germplasm releases and key traits • Lab data reports • Public cooperators’ reports • Yield trial data • GEM information – www.public.iastate.edu/~usda-gem Germplasm Enhancement of Maize

  7. GEM-Ames trial summary - 2009 • The date of the first data set received • 1 day later than that last year (Oct. 21) • The date of the last data set received • 1 day later than that last year (Dec. 3) • Overall 2 weeks later than last year because of the weather and late maturity • Still completed analyses for the meeting • Thanks to the companies who sent the data before requesting • Wyffels, and PANNAR Germplasm Enhancement of Maize

  8. GEM-Ames trial summary - 2009 • Experiments: 42 • Replicated at 4 to 8 locations • Plots: 14,100 • GEM cooperators’ portion: 52% (up from 49% last year) • GEM portion: 48% Germplasm Enhancement of Maize

  9. GEM-Ames trial summary - 2009 • There are 132 GEM topcrosses that out-performed the yield of check means (out of 2658 entries of topcrosses) • The range of CV’s for yield was from 7.6 to 17.5% (a little down from last year 8-18%) and the mean of the CV’s is 11.5 (down from last year 13.4) • Yield trial data - high lodging data this year Germplasm Enhancement of Maize
