Abstract
The aim of this study was to developed purple sweet corn inbred lines from a cross between purple waxy corn and white sweet corn in Vietnam. Twenty elite inbred lines were top crossed with two testers in Spring season 2020 to estimate the general combining ability. Nine lines with Brix > 16, thin pericarp 100mg/100g can be classified as super sweet purple sweet corn lines. Five lines had high GCA regarding marketable yield (UV10, UV24, UV40, UV46, UV71), two lines has high GCA on Brix (UV12, UV16), and five lines had high GCA on anthocyanin content (UV35, UV36, UV38, UV46, UV73). Taken together, UV10 and UV12 lines are super sweet purple sweet corn lines and have high GCA for marketable yield and quality, respectively. This is the first report on the development and selection of purple sweet corn inbred lines in Vietnam.
