Secondary traits can improve precision with which drought or low soil nitrogen (low-N) tolerant maize (Zea mays L.) genotypes are identified, compared to measuring only grain yield under each stress. The objective of this study was to identify secondary traits for indirect selection for yield imp...

Maize (Zea mays L.) is an important staple food crop in West and Central Africa(WCA). However, its production is constrained by drought. Knowledge andunderstanding of the genetics of hybrid performance under drought is invaluablein designing breeding strategies for improving maize yield. One hund...

Two major constraintsmilitatingagainst the achievement of food security in West Africa (WA) are recurrent drought and poor soil fertility. Seventeen early maturing maize inbreds from IITA and CIMMYT were used as parents to produce 136 diallel crosses which were evaluated along with four checks in...

Maize (Zea mays L.) production in west Africa (WA) is constrained by drought, Striga hermonthica infestation and low soil nitrogen (N). Maize varieties resistant to Striga, drought, and low N are ideal for WA, but genotype × environment interaction on these traits are usually significant due to d...
