Agronomic performance and genotype X environment interaction of herbicide-resistant maize varieties in eastern Africa
(Crop Science Society of America (CSSA), 2015)
Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth. and Striga asiatica (L.) Kuntze severely affect maize (Zea mays L.) production in sub-Saharan Africa. A single Striga plant produces a large number of seeds that form a bank of viable but ...

Genome-wide association mapping reveals novel sources of resistance to northern corn leaf blight in maize
(BioMed Central, 2015)
Background: Northern corn leaf blight (NCLB) caused by Exserohilum turcicum is a destructive disease in maize. Using host resistance to minimize the detrimental effects of NCLB on maize productivity is the most cost-effective ...
