Abstract
Moving average and polynomial response surfaces were used to estimate systematic micro-environmental variation within four different F3 selection environments. At low density the response surfaces were efficient in estimating systematic variation. At high densities random variation due to intergenotypic competition predominates. It is concluded that the two major factors rendering single plant selection for yield inefficient are competition within selection plots and genotype-season interactions between the selection and test generations.
