Insect and disease resistance from tropical maize for use in temperate zone hybrids
Biotic constraints (insects, diseases, parasitic weeds) and abiotic stresses (drought) are widespread and pose a constant threat to maize production worldwide. Tropical environments provide the greatest opportunity for evolution of insects and diseases because of the favourable year- round climatic...
