Phenotypic assessment of genetic gain from selection for improved drought tolerance in semi-tropical maize populations

Most maize production across the globe is rain-fed, and production is set to be negatively impacted as duration and occurrence of droughts increases due to climate change. Development of water-deficit tolerant maize germplasm has been a major focus for most breeding programmes. Here, we sought to as...
