Effects of recurrent selection for grain yield and Striga resistance in an extraearly maize production
Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth threatens maize (Zea mays L.) production in sub-Saharan Africa. In an extra-early population, S1 families derived from four cycles of recurrent selection for grain yield and Striga resistance were evaluated with and without Striga infestation at three locations in Nig...
