An assessment of the genetic diversity among extra-early maturing maize inbred lines would be useful for identifying closely related lines, in determining the variation in genetic similarity among genotypes that show no variation for parentage and in planning crosses between genetically divergent...

Assessment of genetic diversity in extraearly Strigaresistant tropical inbred lines using multivariate analysis of agronomic data
Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth.is a majorbiotic constraint to increased maize (Zea mays L.) productionand productivity in West and Central Africa (WCA).Twenty-three early maize inbreds were evaluated underartificial Striga infestation and Striga-free conditions at 2locations for 2 years in Niger...

Selection of early maturing maize inbred lines for hybrid production using multiple traits under Strigainfested and Strigafree environments
Separation of inbred lines of maize (Zea mays L.) into contrasting heterotic groups is of critical importance in determining the potential of lines for the development of high-yielding hybrids. Forty-two Striga resistant, early maturing white endosperm inbred lines were crossed to two intermediat...
