Question: Is a green throat more coveted than a yellow throat? Or are they valued about the same by the hybridizers?

The green throat is more wanted in most cases as it sets the colors off and compliments many where the yellow compliments other colors but not as many. Just look at the colors of Hems and then their throats and make the comparison and see what you think. I like both depending on the color and eye-edge of the bloom.
Take One Way Home for Example-The green throat adds some depth while a yellow one would not.Thumb of 2011-04-16/rebloomnut/a1cbe5

Then look at Arctic Snow and see how he Yellow complimets the ligher almost white bloom and it would also be nice with a green throat.

Thank you so much for the examples. And I have to say again that I really love your ONE WAY HOME daylily! It's really breathtaking to me, and I can see where the green throat is important.

I prefer green throats but, as stated above green doesn't go with everything. Green would not go well with this seedling. Thumb of 2011-04-17/spunky1/0bc14d This seedling looks a lot better with green bleeding out from the throat than yellow would.
Thumb of 2011-04-17/spunky1/98214e
It really depends on the color and form of the bloom, and mother nature will put the correct color there.

Thanks for the comments all, I will be posting lots of seedling photos in a few days as things are really starting to scape here. Have had a few more bloom but nothing anyone would be interested in.
