Abstract

In México maize (Zea mays L.) is the most important crop for its planting area and for the role it plays within the Mexican diet, as its consumption reaches 200 kg per person per year and in tortilla is calculated an average daily intake of 225 g. For this reason, the INIFAP Genetic Improvement Program, based in Iguala, Guerrero, continues the process of generating new maize materials for the different production conditions in the Lower Tropic of México. For the mountain, the regional creoles are conserved and improved, in intermediate areas with varieties and varietal hybrids, and in high productivity areas with conventional hybrids.
