The effects of nitrogen (N) rate and weed interference on the grain yield of four corn genotypes were investigated in 2002
and 2003 at Ikenne (7u389N, 3u429E), Shika (11u119N, 7u389E), and Samaru (10u249N, 7u429E) in Nigeria. Nitrogen
(N) at 0, 30, 60, and 90 kg N ha21 were the main plot treatmen...

Response of corn genotypes to weed interference and nitrogen in Nigeria
Striga and drought are major constraints to
maize (Zea mays L.) production in the savannas
of west and central Africa (WCA). A study
was conducted in 2005 and 2006 in Nigeria to
determine the level of resistance to Striga hermonthica
for two early-maturing maize populations,
one white and one yel...

S1 family selection in early maturing maize populations in Striga infested and Striga free environments
Maize (Zea mays L.) production in west and central Africa (WCA) is constrained by the parasitic weed Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth and recurrent drought. Two early maize populations, TZE-W Pop DT STR C0 (white) and TZE-Y Pop DT STR C0 (yellow), developed from diverse genetic backgrounds, were s...

Performance of early maize cultivars derived from recurrent selection for grain yield and Striga resistance
The potential maize (Zea mays L.) yield in the savannas of West and Central Africa (WCA) is constrained by Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth. parasitism. Field trials at Ferkessedougou, Côte d'Ivoire; Abuja, Nigeria; and Mokwa, Nigeria, in 2002, and at Mokwa and Abuja in 2004, evaluated the perform...
