Stability in performance of quality protein maize under abiotic stress
(Consiglio per la Ricerca e la sperimentazione in Agricoltura, Unità di Ricerca per la Maiscoltura, 2008)
Quality protein maize (QPM) has emerged an affordable and viable option to alleviate protein malnutrition and reduce animal feed costs, given that its grain protein contains more than double the lysine and tryptophan ...

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) ...

Incorporation of elite subtropical and tropical maize germplasm into elite temperate germplasm
(Consiglio per la Ricerca e la sperimentazione in Agricoltura, Unità di Ricerca per la Maiscoltura, 2006)
Elite germplasm and adequate genetic variation are essential in successful plant breeding programs.Maize (Zea mays L.) breeding programs in the U.S. Corn Belt have realized significant genetic advance with a limited sample ...

More on the introduction of temperate maize into Europe: large-scale bulk SSR genotyping and new historical elements
(Consiglio per la Ricerca e la sperimentazione in Agricoltura, Unità di Ricerca per la Maiscoltura, 2006)
The commonly accepted scenario for the spread of maize into Europe is a single introduction followed by a slow adaptation to temperate climates. With the purpose of clarifying the origins and modalities of maize introduction ...

Análisis de la productividad del maíz en el Estado de México
(Universidad Autónoma Chapingo, Coordinación de Revistas Institucionales, 2009)
El Estado de Mexico es uno de los productores mas importantes de maiz en Mexico pero no cubre el total de la demanda local; por lo que se realizo un analisis cuantitativo de su productividad, por lo cual se diseño y calibro ...
Article
Identification of superior quality protein maize hybrids for different mega-environments using the biplot methodology
(Consiglio per la Ricerca e la sperimentazione in Agricoltura, Unità di Ricerca per la Maiscoltura, 2006)
The utilization of site regression models (SREG) on multilocation testing allow the detection of significant differences in the genotype x environment interaction, even though these may not be detected by the analysis of ...

Habilidad combinatoria general y especifica de lineas endogamicas de maiz tolerantes a bajo fosforo
(Universidad Nacional de Colombia, 2008)
Los cruzamientos dialelos de 12 padres contrastantes en la toma y uso de fosforo se evaluaron en dos niveles de fosforo (4 y 15 ppm) usando un diseno experimental de alpha lattice con tres repeticiones. Se uso el diseno ...
