Cross Type

Use the drop-down menu to specify the experimental crossing type.

Note: Cross types are described in the following table:

Cross Type	Description
BC1	Backcross of the F1 lines to P1 (data should be AA and AB genotypes).
BC2	Backcross of the F2 lines to P2 (data should be AB and BB genotypes).
SFn	Selfing on an inbred line followed by random mating over n-1 generations.
RFn	Randomly mated generation n-times intercrossed.
RI0	Generation of a doubled-haploid line.
RI1	Selfing to generate recombinant inbred lines.
RI2	Recombinant inbred via random mating.
IRILself	Intercrossed recombinant inbred line formed by n generations of random mating prior to selfing.
IRILsib	Intercrossed recombinant inbred lines formed via sib mating of individuals from a population that went through n-2 generations of random mating following the F2 generation.
Outcross	F1 segregating population generated by a biparental cross of non- homozygous parents.
Panel	A collection of individuals sampled from one or more populations.

To Specify the Type of Experimental Cross:
