Cultivar evaluation and trait analysis of tropical early maturing maize under Strigainfested and Strigafree environments

Striga hermonthica is a major constraint to maize (Zea mays L.) production in sub-Saharan Africa. The use of secondary traits that have high heritability and genetic correlation with grain yield can improve the precision with which Striga resistant genotypes are identified. Fifteen early cultivars w...
