Agronomic traits associated with genetic gains in maize yield during three breeding eras in West Africa
Studies on genetic gains in grain yield in maize (Zea mays L) is crucial to identify traits of potential value and the necessary modifications in breeding methodologies and strategies for increased progress in future breeding ef-forts. Fifty early-maturing maize cultivars developed during three bree...
