Association of vertical rootpulling resistance with root lodging and grain yield in selected S1 maize lines derived from a tropical lowNitrogen population

Root lodging and poor soil fertility are major constraints to maize production in the Guinea savannah of West Africa. Vertical root-pulling resistance is an indicator of the rooting characteristics of maize cultivars and could be used to select cultivars which have higher resistance to root lodging,...
