North Carolina Design I (NCD I) progenies derived from Pool 16 DT, a white, dent, early maturing, drought-tolerant and streak resistant tropical maize (Zea mays L.) population, were evaluated in the 1995/96 and 1997/98 dry seasons, using two sites each season in Côte d'Ivoire. In all sites, the c...

Maize (Zea mays L.) landraces in the northern Guinea savanna and Sudan savanna in West and Central Africa appear to have some drought-adaptive traits. This study was initiated to assess the level of improvement in yield potential and other agronomic traits achieved under drought stress (DS) and i...

The West and Central Africa Collaborative Maize Research Network (WECAMAN) was instituted with the ultimate goal to help improve maize (Zea mays L.) production in West and Central Africa (WCA). One objective of the Network is to enhance the research capacity and capability of the participating na...

Extra-early maize (Zea mays L) tolerant to low-N and drought could stabilize yields in sub-Saharan Africa. Studies were conducted under drought and low-N conditions in Nigeria for three years to determine the potential of 90 extra-early inbreds for hybrid production and evaluate the performance o...

Maize (Zea mays L.), an important staple crop in West and Central Africa (WCA), has enormous potential to reduce food insecurity in this subregion. Research covering three periods or eras of breeding has been conducted to develop cultivars resistant/tolerant to three maize stress factors: Striga ...

Maize (Zea mays L.) is the most important staple crop in West and Central Africa (WCA), but its production is severely constrained by low soil nitrogen (low N). Fifty-six extra-early open-pollinated maize cultivars developed during three breeding eras, 1995–2000, 2001–2006 and 2007–2012, were eva...
