Hybrid development is enhanced by the assessment and understanding of genetic diversity and distance within inbreds. One hundred and fifty hybrids derived from 30 early-maturing inbreds plus six checks were evaluated at three locations in Nigeria for 2 years to assess their performance under drou...

Grain yield of maize (Zea mays L.) has low heritability under low soil nitrogen (low N) and drought, necessitating the use of secondary traits with strong associations with yield forselection. A base index involving anthesis– silking interval, plant and ear aspects, earsper plant, and stay green ...

Maize (Zea mays L.), a major staple food crop in West and Central Africa (WCA), is adapted to all agro-ecologies in the sub-region. Its production in the sub-region is greatly constrained by infestation of Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth. The performance and stability of the extra-early maturing ...
