The quest for precise and rapid phenotyping of germplasm is increasing the interest of breeders and physiologists in the application of remote sensing techniques in maize breeding. Twenty-four drought-tolerant maize inbred lines were crossed using a modified North Carolina II mating scheme to gen...


Adebayo, M.A.Menkir, A.Hearne, S.Kolawole, A.O.[Gene action controlling normalized difference vegetation index in crosses of elite maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines]Gene action controlling normalized difference vegetation index in crosses of elite maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines

Normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) is a non-destructive measure of green vegetation growth or above ground biomass of a crop. NDVI may also be used to evaluate traits such as early vigour and stay green which are important for adaptation to drought stress. In the present study, the rel...


Adebayo, M.A.Menkir, A.Hearne, S.[Relationships between normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and other traits of tropical testcross maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids under drought and wellwatered conditions]Relationships between normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and other traits of tropical testcross maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids under drought and wellwatered conditions

Abstract Introduced maize (Zea mays L.) germplasmcan serve as sources of favorable alleles toenhance performance in new maize varieties andhybrids under drought stress conditions. In the presentstudy, the combining abilities of 12 exotic maizeinbred lines from CIMMYT and 12 adapted maizeinbred li...


Adebayo, M.A.Menkir, A.Blay, E.Gracen, V.E.Danquah, E.Y.Hearne, S.[Genetic analysis of drought tolerance in adapted X exotic crosses of maize inbred lines under managed stress conditions]Genetic analysis of drought tolerance in adapted X exotic crosses of maize inbred lines under managed stress conditions

Adoption of improved maize (Zea mays L.) varieties in the rainforest agro-ecology of Nigeria largely depends on yielding potential and resistance to common foliar diseases. The present study aims at assessing the combining ability of a set of adapted and exotic drought-tolerant maize inbred lines...


Adebayo, M.A.Menkir, A.[Combining ability of adapted and exotic drought-tolerant maize inbred lines under full irrigation and rainfed conditions in Nigeria]Combining ability of adapted and exotic drought-tolerant maize inbred lines under full irrigation and rainfed conditions in Nigeria

Estimates of combining abilities and heterosis of inbred lines are imperative for selection of suitable parents of maize hybrids. This study examined the combining ability of 24 drought-tolerant maize inbred lines, 12 each from International Centre for Maize and Wheat Improvement (CIMMYT) and Int...


Adebayo, M.A.Menkir, A.Blay, E.Gracen, V.Danquah, E.Y.[Combining ability and heterosis of elite drought-tolerant maize inbred lines evaluated in diverse environments of lowland tropics]Combining ability and heterosis of elite drought-tolerant maize inbred lines evaluated in diverse environments of lowland tropics
