The West and Central Africa Collaborative Maize Research Network (WECAMAN) was established in 1987 to strengthen the capacity and capability of national programmes of West and Central Africa (WCA) to tackle regional constraints to maize production. The Network created several mechanisms for imple...

The Guinea savannas of Nigeria have a high potential for the production of maize because of favorable environmental conditions. Despite this high potential, the yields obtained under farmers' conditions are still very low. Low soil fertility and intermittent drought are among major constraints li...

Maize (Zea mays) is a staple food crop in sub-Saharan Africa, but itsproduction is threatened byStriga hermonthica(Del.) Benth. Transferof resistance genes from wild relatives may increase resistance toS. hermonthicain tropical maize. The objective of this study was todetermine the combining abil...
