Maize (Zea mays subsp mays) was domesticated from teosinte (Z. mays subsp parviglumis) through a single domestication event in southern Mexico between 6000 and 9000 years ago. This domestication event resulted in the original maize landrace varieties, which were spread throughout the Americas by ...
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...
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...
Parasitic weed, Striga spp infect million hectares of arable land in Africa and become a major threat to food production in the continent S.hermonthica is a predominant species and causes the highest damage Maize (Zea mays L.) is very susceptible to Striga IITA scientists initiated Striga researc...
Sixty-two IITA and local cowpea lines/varieties were field evaluated without artificial inoculation, for their natural resistance to fungal diseases at fumesus in the forest ecology of Ghana in 1986. Of these, 30 lines were apparently resistant to multiple diseases, 19 were moderately resistant, ...
