1. About 17,000 yield trial plots were coordinated through Raleigh. About
9,000 of these were grown at NC State locations.
From these, 10 GEM families are recommended.

4. Work evaluating tropical inbreds suggests that CML 258, CML269, CML341, CML343, TZI8, AND TZI9 merit attention from GEM.
More limited data suggest that CML339, and CA00370 may also be worth using.
