Striga, drought, and low soil fertility constrain maize (Zea mays L.) productivity in West and Central Africa. Two Striga-resistant extra-early populations, TZEE-W Pop STR C0 (white) and TZEE-Y Pop STR C0 (yellow) were evaluated in field trials in Nigeria, f...

Improvement of yield and other traits of extra early maize under stress and nonstress environments
Maize (Zea mays L.) cultivars combining high grain yield with elevated levels of lysine, tryptophan, and desirable endosperm modification, could reduce food insecurity and malnutrition in West and Central Africa (WCA). Sixteen early- and nine extra-early-maturing quality protein maize (QPM) and n...

The pattern of grain yield response of normal and quality protein maize cultivars in stress and nonstress environments and nonstress environments
Maize (Zea mays L.) production in west and central Africa (WCA) is constrained by the parasitic weed Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth and recurrent drought. Two early maize populations, TZE-W Pop DT STR C0 (white) and TZE-Y Pop DT STR C0 (yellow), developed from diverse genetic backgrounds, were s...
