The production of a hybrid corn variety involves three steps: (1) the selection of superior plants; (2) selfing for several generations to produce a series of inbred lines, which although different from each other are each pure-breeding and highly uniform; and (3) crossing selected inbred lines.

Pure line selection is a method in which new variety is developed by selection of single best plant progeny among traditional varieties or land races.Pure line is a self pollinated descendent of a self pollinated plant.
Another term used for this method of plant breeding is individual plant selection, as large numbers of plants are selected, but those are harvested individually, their individual progenies are grown and evaluated and then best progeny is released as a pureline variety.
