Genetic variability for grain yield and components in an early tropical yellow maize population under Striga hermonthica infestation
A major problem that usually confronts the breeder is ensuring that there is sufficient genetic variability in a population for the trait being improved because this determines the breeding schemes to use for improvement and whether or not sufficient progress could be made. Three hundred full-sib fa...
