Gains in genetic enhancement of early maturing maize hybrids developed during three breeding periods under striga-infested and striga-free environments
Striga hermonthica is a major maize production constraint in West and Central Africa (WCA). Fifty-four early maturing maize hybrids of three breeding periods: 2008–2011, 2012–2013, 2014–2015, were evaluated under Striga-infested and non-infested environments in WCA. The study aimed at assessing gene...
