Genetic analysis of grain yield and other traits of extraearly yellow maize inbreds and hybrid performance under contrasting environments

Maize (Zea mays L.) is a major staple crop in West and Central Africa (WCA) but production is constrained by Striga hermonthica parasitism and recurrent drought in the savannas where maize yield potential is highest due to low night temperatures, high solar radiation and low incidence of diseases.
