En el año 2002 se inició un esquema de mejoramiento genético por retrocruzas en el Sintético A, proveniente de un compuesto de 17 variedades criollas de la raza Comiteco de grano amarillo, con objeto de incorporarle el gene opaco-2, utilizando como donante la línea CML-172. Después de dos retrocruzas se formó un compuesto con las mejores líneas con más de 50% de lisina y triptofano y se le registró en el SNICS con la denominación V238AC. Esta nueva variedad puede producir de 5 a 7 t ha-1 en la Meseta Comiteca, con altitudes de 1 500 a 1 800 m, con más de 600 mm de precipitación pluvial.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract The producers of the Meseta Comiteca region, Chiapas, belong to the Tojolabal ethnic group and are characterized by having very high rates of malnutrition, cultivating more than 82 000 ha of corn, using Creole varieties of the Comiteco race, with an average yield of 1.7 t ha-1, so an improved variety with higher nutritional quality is required. In 2002, a genetic improvement scheme was initiated by rackcross in Synthetic A, from a compound of 17 Creole varieties of the yellow-grain Comiteco breed, in order to incorporate the opaque-2 gene, using the CML-172 line as a donor. After two backcrosses, a compound was formed with the best lines with more than 50% lysine and tryptophan and it was registered in the SNICS with the denomination V238AC. This new variety can produce from 5 to 7 t ha-1 in the Meseta Comiteca, at altitudes of 1 500 to 1 800 m, with more than 600 mm of rainfall.]]></p></abstract>
