Field experiments were conducted with IITA maize (Zea mays L.) composite B at six locations ranging from forest to savannah in the Western State of Nigeria to assess the level of zinc response on sandy Inceptisols. Zinc, as Na2 Zn EDTA, was applied as broadcast application at 0, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, an...

Maize (Zea mays) and itch grass (Rottboellia cochinchinensis) plants exhibiting a mild mosaic or mottle were collected from a farmer's field near Mokwa, Nigeria, in 1993. Icosahedral virions (approximately 28 to 30 nm) were purified from symptomatic tissue by differential centrifugation in 0.1 M ...

The effect of constant and fluctuating soil temperature and two soil moisture regimes on the growth, development, transpiration and nutrient uptake by maize seedlings was studied in a greenhouse investigation. The constant root temperatures were maintained at 30, 34, 35, 36, 37, and 38°C for both...

Live mulch is a crop production technique in which a food crop is planted directly in a living cover of an established cover crop without tillage or destruction of the fallow vegetation. The effect of several established legume covers on weed competition, fertilizer requirement and yield of maize...
