Adebayo, M.A.Menkir, A.Gedil, M.Blay, E.Gracen, V.E.Danquah, E.Y.Funmilayo, L.[Diversity assessment of drought tolerant exotic and adapted maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines with microsatellite markers]Diversity assessment of drought tolerant exotic and adapted maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines with microsatellite markers

Drought occurs at high frequency in maize production zones in Africa. Carefully controlled moisture deficits have been imposed at anthesis and grain filling stages of maize to develop drought tolerant germplasm. The present study was conducted to examine the potential effects of drought tolerant ...


Menkir, A.Crossa, J.Meseka, S.K.Bossey, B.Ado, S.G.Obeng-Antwi, K.Yallou, C.Coulibaly, N.Olaoye, G.Alidu, H.[Comparative performance of top-cross maize hybrids under managed drought stress and variable rainfed environments]Comparative performance of top-cross maize hybrids under managed drought stress and variable rainfed environments

Yield losses of maize due to drought stress (DS) in environments with limited rains can reach 100 %. Introgression of favorable alleles from diverse landraces into adapted elite varieties will improve performance, hence reducing losses. The objective of this study was to assess the performance of...


Meseka, S.K.Menkir, A.Obeng-Antwi, K.[Exploitation of beneficial alleles from maize (Zea mays L.) landraces to enhance performance of an elite variety in water stress environments]Exploitation of beneficial alleles from maize (Zea mays L.) landraces to enhance performance of an elite variety in water stress environments

Meseka, S.Menkir, A.Bossey, O.Mengesha, W.[Assessment of performance of drought tolerant maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids under combined drought and heat stress]Assessment of performance of drought tolerant maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids under combined drought and heat stress

This study measured the impacts of drought tolerant maize varieties (DTMVs) on productivity, welfare, and risk exposure using household and plot-level data from rural Nigeria. The study employed an endogenous switching regression approach to control for both observed and unobserved sources of het...


Assfaw Wossen, TesfamichealAbdoulaye, TahirouAlene, A.Feleke, S.Menkir, A.Manyong, Victor M.[Measuring the impacts of adaptation strategies to drought stress: the case of drought tolerant maize varieties]Measuring the impacts of adaptation strategies to drought stress: the case of drought tolerant maize varieties

To evaluate local maize varieties from Burkina Faso under moisture deficiency to identify suitable genotypes to serve as sources of drought tolerance alleles for incorporation into improved cultivars. Methodology and results: Fourteen local maize varieties from Bu...


Olaoye, G.Menkir, A.Ajala, S.O.Jacob, S.[Evaluation of local maize (Zea mays L.) varieties from Burkina Faso as source of tolerance to drought]Evaluation of local maize (Zea mays L.) varieties from Burkina Faso as source of tolerance to drought

In the dry savannas of West and Central Africa, where low soil fertility, unpredictable rainfall, weed competition and recurrent drought are major constraints to maize production, the development of tropical maize genotypes with high and stable yields under drought and low-nitrogen condition is v...

Menkir, A.Kling, J.G.Badu-Apraku, B.Ibikunle, O.[Registration of 26 tropical maize germplasm lines with resistance to Striga hermonthica]Registration of 26 tropical maize germplasm lines with resistance to Striga hermonthica

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...
