El maíz debe a puntar a conventirse en cadena productiva. El trabajo estará enfocado a la genética y al manejo agronómico. Para ello se identifican los genotipos de alto rendimiento con adaptación a suelos ácidos y se definirán las prácticas agronómicas que permitan la mayor expresión de esos gen...
Normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) is a non-destructive measure of green vegetation growth or above ground biomass of a crop. NDVI may also be used to evaluate traits such as early vigour and stay green which are important for adaptation to drought stress. In the present study, the rel...
Maize (Zea mays L.) landraces in the northern Guinea savanna and Sudan savanna in West and Central Africa appear to have some drought-adaptive traits. This study was initiated to assess the level of improvement in yield potential and other agronomic traits achieved under drought stress (DS) and i...
Low soil nitrogen (N) and sub-optimal N fertilizer applications result in poor grain yield (GY) in maize. Genotypes with improved N-use efficiency (NUE) are particularly beneficial to low-input agriculture. Information on the relative importance of the main components of NUE will facilitate genet...
Phosphorus plays an important role for food crop production in the forest zone of tropical Africa but very little information is available on the phosphate requirement for maize production there. Field trials were, therefore, conducted with maize (Zea mays L.) at two locations on Alfisols in sout...
Planted fallows are an alternative to the unsustainable bush fallow for improved soil and weed management in the tropics. However, the interactive effects of planted fallows and tillage on the weed seedbank are not well documented in the tropical environment. The effect of fallow type and tillage...
Breeding programs for acid-soil tolerance are desirable as a relatively inexpensive and permanent way for increasing maize (Zea mays L.) yield on these soils. Our objective was to compare the genetic effects controlling the expression of maize traits in acid and non-acid soils. Seven related and ...
