Badu-Apraku, B.Menkir, A.[Registration of 16 extra early maturing Striga resistant tropical maize inbred lines]Registration of 16 extra early maturing Striga resistant tropical maize inbred lines

Fusarium ear rot and fumonisin contamination is a major problem facing maize growers worldwide, and host resistance is the most effective strategy to control the disease, but resistant genotypes have not been identified. In 2003, a total of 103 maize inbred lines were evaluated for Fusarium ear r...

Menkir, A.Kling, J.G.Badu-Apraku, B.Ibikunle, O.[Registration of 26 tropical maize germplasm lines with resistance to Striga hermonthica]Registration of 26 tropical maize germplasm lines with resistance to Striga hermonthica

Gray leaf spot (GLS), caused by Cercospora zeae-maydis Tehon & E.Y. Daniels, poses a serious threat to maize (Zea mays L.) production in sub-Saharan Africa. The knowledge of inheritance of resistance to GLS in new inbred lines would be useful for efficient development of hybrids and synthetics. I...

Aflatoxin accumulation in maize (Zea mays L.) kernels is a serious economic and health problem that reduces grain quality and nutritional values and causes death to livestock and humans. Understanding the genetic parameters and heterotic responses of exotic maize inbred lines can facilitate their...

Several maize near-isogenic inbred lines were subjected to comparative proteomics to identify kernel proteins associated with resistance. These lines were developed in Nigeria through a joint project between ARS-SRRC and the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture. The goal of this projec...

Striga hermonthica is the most widespread and destructive obligate root parasite infecting maize and other cereals in Africa. Maize inbred lines supporting reduced S. hermonthica emergence can form an important basis for developing Striga‐resistant maize cultivars. Twenty new inbred lines selecte...
