Low maize yields and the impacts of climate change on maize production highlight the need to improve yields in eastern and southern Africa. Climate projections suggest higher temperatures within drought-prone areas. Research in model species suggests that tolerance to combined drought and heat st...

Maize is grown by millions of smallholder farmers in South Asia (SA) under diverse environments. The crop is grown in different seasons in a year with varying exposure to weather extremes, including high temperatures at critical growth stages which are expected to increase with climate change. Th...


Tesfaye, K.Zaidi, P.H.Gbegbelegbe, SikaBoeber, C.Rahut, D.B.Getaneh, F.Seetharam, K.Erenstein, OlafStirling, Clare M.[Climate change impacts and potential benefits of heat-tolerant maize in South Asia]Climate change impacts and potential benefits of heat-tolerant maize in South Asia

Plant breeding and improved management options have made remarkable progress in increasing crop yields during the past century. However, climate change projections suggest that large yield losses will be occurring in many regions, particularly within sub-Saharan Africa. The development of climate...

The paper explores opportunities and limitations for concomitant improvement of maize grain quantity and quality traits and maize stover quantity and quality traits in 60 parental lines, 30 crosses/local checks and 12 released hybrids. Investigated grain quality traits were protein (CP), fat, met...

Panel of inbred lines were test crossed to a tester CML312SR and evaluated for stover fodder quality and agronomic traits. These lines were genotyped for by SNP's (55 K illumine and GBS) and 445 K SNP marker were used for GWAS for Stover N, ADF and IVOMD. Significant desirable and undesirable tra...


Vinayan, M.T.Babu, R.Jyothsna, T.Zaidi, P.H.Blümmel, Michael[A note on potential candidate genomic regions with implications for maize stover fodder quality]A note on potential candidate genomic regions with implications for maize stover fodder quality

Sixty elite maize inbred lines were selected from CIMMYT-Asia maize program for stover fodder quality analysis. These lines were selected based on high per se and cross performance across several locations in the Asian tropics and have wide adaptability across the region. The line evaluation tria...
