I was interested in starting breeding.
Unfortunately, I know nothing about it or the genetics.
What would be a good "starter" project for corn breeding?
Eventually, after I get some experience, I'd like to try some more advanced morphs.
But for now I'm just looking for some thing besides normals which can be acquired for not a lot of $, which may produce some interesting offspring.
This would be more for my own enjoyment than for profit.
One other part to this question, can some one explain what Het and homozygous means, and what are some other breeding terms I should know?
I'm gonna go and buy a book on this as soon as I get paid, just thought I'd get a head start.
Thanks!
