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 ...

The majority of farmers in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) depend on maize (Zea mays L.), which is mostly grown in drought-prone areas. Understanding the inheritance of drought tolerance would help in developing drought-tolerant maize hybrids that would help increase maize production under erratic rainf...

High cost of nitrogen fertilizer coupled with frequent occurrence of drought has forced many maize (Zea mays L.) growers in sub-Saharan Africa to either apply fertilizer below optimal dose or no fertilizer to their maize fields. The objectives of this study were to (i) compare the performance of ...
