Genetic analysis of grain yield and resistance of extra-early-maturing maize inbreds to northern corn leaf blight by Badu-Apraku, Baffour, Bankole, F., Fakorede, M.A.B., Ayinde, O., Ortega Beltran, A.

“…This study (a) examined the combining abilities of extra-early maize (EEM) inbreds and classified them into heterotic groups; (b) elucidated gene action controlling resistance to NCLB; (c) assessed grain yield (GYLD) and yield stability of EEM hybrids underNCLB infection; and (d) identified testers. One hundred and fiftyEEMhybrids, obtained by crossing 15 inbreds each of white- and yellow-endosperm maize using the North Carolina Design II, plus six checks, were evaluated in nine environments, six of which were inoculated with an isolate of E. turcicum and three of which were non-inoculated in 2018 and 2019. …”
