Abstract: From 1987 to 1989, the main problems of improving corn seed production techpique which may be used to substitute the inbred line by sib-cross hybrids were studied. The results showed that the yield and agronomical u-niformity of sib-cross hybrids were better than inbreds'and seed output were raised over 50%. The combining ability of sib-cross hybrids was similar to the inbreds and was heritable.The output and uniformity of modified hybrids was similar to hybrids.

Key words: Corn, Sib-cross hybrids, Modified hybrids, Combining ability, Agronomical haracters, Uniformity
