Assessing inbred-hybrid relationships for developing drought tolerant provitamin A - quality protein maize hybrids
Drought tolerant early maturing maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines with high levels of provitamin A and quality protein (PVA‐QPM) are urgently needed for development of superior hybrids to mitigate malnutrition and intensify maize production and productivity in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA). This study was...
