Genetic gains from cycles of fullsib recurrent selection for low nitrogen tolerance in a tropical maize population
Nitrogen stress is a major nutrient constraint to maize productivity in the Northern Guinea savanna of West and Central Africa. Thus, improved maize germplasm tolerant to low N with the capacity to utilize N more efficiently together with improved agronomic practices appear to be the primary control...
