Environmental stability of iron and zinc concentrations in grain of elite earlymaturing tropical maize genotypes grown under field conditions
Assessment of the stability of micronutrients is important in breeding for the enhanced nutritional quality of staple food crops as a means to alleviate malnutrition. Twenty early-maturing elite tropical maize (Zea mays L.) genotypes were evaluated over 2 years at three locations representing three...
