Phenotypic characterization and validation of provitamin A functional genes in early maturing provitamin A-quality protein maize (Zea mays) inbred lines
The number of drought and low‐N tolerant hybrids with elevated levels of provitamin A (PVA) in sub‐Saharan Africa could increase when PVA genes are optimized and validated for developed drought and low‐N tolerant inbred lines. This study aimed to (a) determine the levels of drought and low‐N toleran...
