Table 2 The details of the 2-way, 4-way, and 8-way crosses that were generated and the cross combinations that were developed through the multi-parent crossing approach employed in this study. The table includes information on the specific founder lines involved in each type of cross, as well as the resulting cross combinations that were produced.
