Genomic regions associated with root traits under drought stress in tropical maize (Zea mays L.)
(Public Library of Science, 2016)
An association mapping panel, named as CIMMYT Asia association mapping (CAAM) panel, involving 396 diverse tropical maize lines were phenotyped for various structural and functional traits of roots under drought and ...

Farmer perceptions on maize cultivars in the marginal eastern belt of Zimbabwe and their implications for breeding
(African Crop Science Society, 2006)
Productivity of maize ( Zea mays check for this species in other resources ) is low in the small-holder sector of Zimbabwe because the crop is grown under stress-prone environments and limited resources. The objective of ...

Relative importance of general combining ability and specific combining ability among tropical maize (Zea mays L.) inbreds under contrasting nitrogen environments
(Consiglio per la Ricerca e la sperimentazione in Agricoltura, Unità di Ricerca per la Maiscoltura, 2008)
Low-N stress is among the major abiotic stresses causing yield reductions in maize grown in the mid-altitude tropical environments of Africa. This study estimates the relative importance of general combining ability (GCA) ...
