Breeding strategies to improve maize for adaptation to low soil nitrogen in West and Central Africa por Ajala, S.O., Menkir, A., Kamara, A.Y., Alabi, S.O., Abdulai, M.S.

“…This yield gain is associated with desirable changes in other agronomic traits. Determination of relationships between vertical root pulling strength and nitrogen uptake and use efficiency and testing of maize genotypes developed for drought under low-N are other strategies that can aid breeding for tolerance to low-soil nitrogen.…”
