Comparative performance of early maturing maize cultivars developed in three Eras under drought stress and wellwatered environments in West Africa
Maize (Zea mays L.) is a major staple crop in West Africa and has the potential to mitigate the food insecurity in the subregion. However, maize grain yield is severely constrained by drought. A study was conducted at 13 locations in West Africa for 2 yr to determine genetic gains in yield of cultiv...
