Emergence of several seed companies in the West Africa sub-region during the last decade has necessitated intensified efforts towards hybrid development and extensive testing. The objectives of the present study were to evaluate selected Striga-resistant maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids for grain yiel...

The parasitic angiosperms, Striga hermonthica and S. gesnerioides, obligate root parasites endemic in sub-Saharan Africa, constitute severe constraints to cereal and legume production in West and Central Africa. Over the years, a range of effective component technologies has been identified for S...

Fusarium oxysporumf.sp.strigaewas reported to be effective in the control ofStrig-a hermonthica(Del.). The most effective (pathogenic toStriga) isolates werePSM197 and FOXY2 obtained from Nigeria and Ghana, respectively. To make appli-cation easier, the organisms were encapsulated in a pesta as c...

Autor: Badu-Apraku, B. Yallou, C. Oyekunle, M.

Maize is the most important staple cereal crop in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and has great potential to rectify the food insecurity in the sub-region. A study was conducted at four locations two each in Nigeria and Benin in 2010 and 2011 to determine the rate of genetic improvement in the grain yie...

Maize (Zea mays L.) has the greatest yield potential in savannas of West and Central Africa (WCA). However, production in this agroecology is constrained by low levels of N, drought, and parasitism by striga [Striga hermonthica (Del) Benth.]. Diallel crosses involving 17 extra-early white maize i...

A base index involving Striga damage, number of emerged Striga plantsand ears per plant is used for selecting for maize (Zea mays L.) grainyield under Striga infestation. There are contradictory reports on the reliabilityof number of emerged Striga plants for selecting for Striga resistance.The o...

Low soil nitrogen (Low N), Striga hermonthica and recurrent drought are major constraints to maize production and productivity in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Only a few extra-early maturing hybrids with combined tolerance to drought, Striga and low N have been commercialized in SSA. The objectives ...

Marker-assisted recurrent selection (MARS) is a breeding method used to accumulate favorable alleles that for example confer tolerance to drought in inbred lines from several genomic regions within a single population. A bi-parental cross formed from two parents that combine resistance to Striga ...

Striga hermonthica and drought are the major stresses limiting maize yields in sub-Saharan Africa. The search for diverse maize lines’ tolerance to drought and resistance to S. hermonthica (DTSTHR) is very crucial for yield improvement in areas affected by the two stresses. Understanding the gene...
