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

Striga hermonthica is a major constraint to maize (Zea mays L.) production in sub-Saharan Africa. The use of secondary traits that have high heritability and genetic correlation with grain yield can improve the precision with which Striga resistant genotypes are identified. Fifteen early cultivar...


Badu-Apraku, B.Akinwale, R.[Cultivar evaluation and trait analysis of tropical early maturing maize under Strigainfested and Strigafree environments]Cultivar evaluation and trait analysis of tropical early maturing maize under Strigainfested and Strigafree environments

Emergence of several seed companies in the West Africa sub-region during the last decade has necessitated intensified efforts towards hybrid development and extensive testing. The objectives of the present study were to evaluate selected Striga-resistant maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids for grain yiel...


Akinwale, R.Badu-Apraku, B.Fakorede, M.A.B.[Evaluation of strigaresistant early maize hybrids and test locations under strigainfested and strigafree environments]Evaluation of strigaresistant early maize hybrids and test locations under strigainfested and strigafree 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

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
