They have some interesting looking synthetic populations. Is it a real process to buy some seeds from them for research and test breeding?

I haven't used it in over 30 years. Their stuff is for real. Pricy enough to stop the casual shopper. Or at least that was true then. I just google iowa state corn germplasm. Things have changed. It used to be about 25 cents per seed, but then it was yours. Now written agreements are needed on most of what I found.

I see previously you were wanting to make a multi eared hybrid, is that what you are still trying to breed. If so I have a couple promising inbreds that I lack space to multiply this year.

That is what I was looking at yes.

Does anyone have a link to them on how to go about buying something. Or a GRIN ascension # that has their stiff stalk lines in the pedigree? Or the names of varieties with the stiff stalk genes?

Ames 28168 is BSSS cycle 5 Ht (northern leaf blight resistant gene) it appears to be unencumbered. But there are many inbreds you can get with stiff stalk backgrounds, what maturity are you looking for?

Thanks! I looked that up and also found a whole list in GRIN that is related to ISS. I'm ultimately looking for short season maturity, planting to dry in 100 days or less. I have quite a collection assembled to select from but always on the look out to increase desired traits.
