Efficiency of indirect selection for grain yield in maize (Zea maysL.) under low nitrogen conditions through secondary traits under low nitrogen and grain yield under optimum conditions

Small-scale maize farmers in sub-Saharan Africa use meager amounts of nitrogen (N) in their maize crops. N use efficient varieties can provide a solution to the problem of low N conditions through efficient N uptake and utilization. The objectives of this study were to i) compare the quantitative ge...
