Stem borers are one of the major constraints limiting maize productivity in Africa. The most important species reducing maize yield in West and Central Africa are Sesamia calamistis, Eldana saccharina and Busseola fusca. Both the pink stem borer (Sesamia calamistis Walker (Pyralidae) and the sug...

A maize population was subjected to three different selection procedures to determine the best methodfor its improvement in a study conducted at Ibadan, Nigeria. Considerable genetic variability existedwithin the population for effective selection for each of the traits considered, using any of t...
