A USA Africa collaborative strategy for identifying, characterising and developing maize germplasm with resistance to aflatoxin contamination
Aflatoxin contamination of maize by Aspergillus flavus poses serious potential economic losses in the US and health hazards to humans, particularly in West Africa. The Southern Regional Research Center of the United States Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service (USDA-ARS-SRRC) and...
