Evaluation of artificial field infestation techniques with Striga Hermonthica for resistance screening in maize (Zea mays L.)
Breeding for resistance to Striga can be done effectively under high and uniform artificial field infestation. To identify Striga tolerantresistant maize genotypes, it is essential to artificially inoculate every hill of maize in the breeding nursery with Striga seeds. The present method of inoculat...
