Journal Article 2018-01

Autor: Gebremeskel, S. García Oliveira, A.L. Menkir, A. Adetimirin, V. Gedil, M.

Development of pro-vitamin A (PVA) biofortified staple crops has been promoted as an option for addressing vitamin A deficiency in humans. Recently, crtRBI, lcyE and zep1 genes of carotenoid biosynthesis pathway have been identified as contributors to PVA accumulation in maize endosperm. High phe...

Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth. is a parasitic weed that attacks maize, sorghum, and other staple cereal crops in the West African savannas. It is widely believed that Striga thrives best in areas of low soil fertility. This study was conducted to determine the effects of nitrogen (N) fertilizat...

Objective: Drought and low soil nitrogen(low N) are the most important environmental constraints contributing to yield in stability of maize (Zea mays L.). Evaluation of maize genotypes under different stresses would be useful for identifying genotypes that combine stability with high yield pote...

Thirty-six inbred lines selected in West and Central Africa for moderate to high resistance to maize ear rot under conditions of severe natural infection were screened for resistance to aflatoxin contamination using the previously established kernel screening assay. Results showed that more than ...

Genetic improvement of maize hybrids for superior stress tolerance has contributed to increased yield by allowing hybrids to be planted at higher plant populations. This study was conducted to evaluate the response of maize hybrids developed in the Nigerian Savanna from different eras to high pla...

Autor: Menkir, A.

Striga hermonthica is the most widespread and destructive obligate root parasite infecting maize and other cereals in Africa. Maize inbred lines supporting reduced S. hermonthica emergence can form an important basis for developing Striga‐resistant maize cultivars. Twenty new inbred lines selecte...
