Effects of drought and low nitrogen stress on provitamin A carotenoid content of biofortified maize hybrids

Maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids with enhanced provitamin A (proVA) content have been deployed in sub-Saharan Africa, where low soil nitrogen and drought stress are common. The objectives of this study were to assess: (i) the effects of drought and low-N stress on grain proVA content of hybrids with enha...
