Badu-Apraku, B.Yallou, C.Oyekunle, M.Akinwale, R.Aweke, G.Kamara, A.[Consistency of performance of early-maturing maize cultivars in Striga infested and Striga-free environments]Consistency of performance of early-maturing maize cultivars in Striga infested and Striga-free environments

Maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids resistant to Striga hermonthica (Del) Benth and tolerant to drought are vital to the sustainability of productivity of the maize-based farming systems of West and Central Africa (WCA). Thirty-six diallel crosses derived from nine early maturing white maize inbreds were...


Badu-Apraku, B.Oyekunle, M.Akinwale, R.O.Lum, A.F.[Combining ability of earlymaturing white maize inbreds under stress and nonstress environments]Combining ability of earlymaturing white maize inbreds under stress and nonstress environments

Vitamin A deficiency, drought, low soil nitrogen (low N) and Striga hermonthica parasitism of maize (Zea mays L.) cause malnutrition and food insecurity in sub-Saharan Africa. The objectives of this study were to determine combining abilities of extra-early provitamin A (PVA) lines, classify them...


Badu-Apraku, B.Fakorede, M.A.B.Talabi, A.O.Oyekunle, M.Aderounmu, M.Lum, A.F.Ribeiro, P.F.Adu, G.B.Toyinbo, J.O.[Genetic studies of extra-early provitamin-A maize inbred lines and their hybrids in multiple environments]Genetic studies of extra-early provitamin-A maize inbred lines and their hybrids in multiple environments

Maize (Zea mays L.) has the greatest yield potential in savannas of West and Central Africa (WCA). However, production in this agroecology is constrained by low levels of N, drought, and parasitism by striga [Striga hermonthica (Del) Benth.]. Diallel crosses involving 17 extra-early white maize i...


Badu-Apraku, B.Oyekunle, M.Akinwale, R.Aderounmu, R.O.[Combining ability and genetic diversity of extraearly white maize inbreds under stress and nonstress environments]Combining ability and genetic diversity of extraearly white maize inbreds under stress and nonstress environments

Drought is a major constraint to maize production in West and Central Africa (WCA). Assessment of genetic gain from S1 recurrent selection under drought is crucial for the development of drought tolerance breeding strategies. In an early white population, 60 S1 families each derived from the base...


Badu-Apraku, B.Oyekunle, M.Talabi, A.O.Annor, B.Akaogu, I.C.[Changes in genetic variances and heritabilities in an early white maize population following S1 selection for grain yield, Striga resistance and drought tolerance]Changes in genetic variances and heritabilities in an early white maize population following S1 selection for grain yield, Striga resistance and drought tolerance

Information on the combining ability, heterotic patterns and genetic diversity of maize (Zea mays L.) inbreds is crucial for the success of a hybrid program targeting the stress environments of West Africa (WA). Studies were conducted in 2011 at four locations in Nigeria to (i) determine the comb...


Badu-Apraku, B.Oyekunle, M.Fakorede, M.A.B.Vroh Bi, IrieAkinwale, R.Aderounmu, R.O.[Combining ability, heterotic patterns and genetic diversity of extraearly yellow inbreds under contrasting environments]Combining ability, heterotic patterns and genetic diversity of extraearly yellow inbreds under contrasting environments

Badu-Apraku, B.Olakojo, S.A.Olaoye, G.Oyekunle, M.Fakorede, M.A.B.Ogunbodede, B.A.Aladele, S.[Two extraearly maturing white maize hybrids released in Nigeria]Two extraearly maturing white maize hybrids released in Nigeria
