Understanding genetic diversity and population structure of CIMMYT and IITA early maturing provitamin A maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines using phenotypic traits and SNP markers for variable tolerance to drought and heat stress

Understanding genetic relationships of maize inbred lines before integrating them into a breeding program is crucial for optimizing heterosis. In this study we assessed the genetic diversity and population structure of 188 early maturing provitamin A maize inbred lines sourced from CIMMYT and IITA u...
