Genetic analysis of grain yield and agronomic traits of early provitamin A quality protein maize inbred lines in contrasting environments
Early-maturing provitamin A (PVA) quality protein maize (QPM) hybrids with combined drought and low soil nitrogen (low-N) tolerance are needed to address malnutrition and food security problems in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The current study's objectives were to (i) examine combining ability of selec...
