Response to low soil nitrogen stress of S1 maize breeding lines selected for high vertical rootpulling resistance
Poor soil fertility, especially with low levels of nitrogen (N), is a major constraint to productivity and the production of maize in the Guinea Savanna of Nigeria. To improve efficiency of the maize to use N in the Savanna, maize genotypes with improved root systems to exploit the available N from...
