Abstract
ICMV 3 was constituted by recombining four best general combining entries: 700516 (from Nigeria), Serere 2A and Serere 14 (from Uganda), and Souna III (from Senegal), which were identified by topcross analysis in 1979 at the Centre National de Recherches Agronomiques, Bambey, Senegal, by staff of the ICRISAT/ISRA cooperative program. Syn1 seed was generated by mixing equal quantities of seed of all possible crosses among the four parents. Mass selection was practiced in the subsequent generations in the seed increase plots, which were grown in isolation. The resultant variety was tested as IBV 8004.
