Dissecting genome-wide association signals for loss-of-function phenotypes in sorghum flavonoid pigmentation traits 

Morris, G.P.; Rhodes, D.H.; Brenton, Z.; Ramu, P.; Vinayan, M.T.; Deshpande, S.; Hash, C.T.; Acharya, C.B.; Mitchell, S.E.; Buckler, E.S.; Jianming Yu; Kresovich, S. (Genetics Society of America, 2013)
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are a powerful method to dissect the genetic basis of traits, though in practice the effects of complex genetic architecture and population structure remain poorly understood. To ...

Potential technology and research needs for rainfed maize production in drought prone environments of Southern Africa 

Waddington, S.R.; Kunjeku, P. (CIMMYT, 1989)
In southern Africa, semi-arid areas (here simply defined as areas with less than 700 mm but more than 350 mm of rainfall per annum) can be found from around 100 m to over 1,400 m above sea level. The semi-arid areas most ...

Metabolic and phenotypic responses of greenhouse-grown maize hybrids to experimentally controlled drought stress 

Witt, S.; Galicia, L.; Lisec, J.; Cairns, J.E.; Tiessen, A.; Araus, J.L.; Palacios-Rojas, N.; Fernie, A.R. (Elsevier, 2012)
Adaptation to abiotic stresses like drought is an important acquirement of agriculturally relevant crops like maize. Development of enhanced drought tolerance in crops grown in climatic zones where drought is a very dominant ...

Maize adaptive research: achievements and prospects in Southern Africa 

Low, A.R.C.; Waddington, S.R. (CIMMYT, 1990)
In the last six to eight years, farming systems adaptive research has contributed much to the understanding of maize production constraints on smallholder farms in southern Africa. It has contributed less to the development ...

Comparative economics of maize production in risky environments in Zimbabwe 

Mudhara, M.; Low, A.R.C. (CIMMYT, 1990)
Planting strategies of smallholder farmers are examined in two contrasting study areas in Zimbabwe, Mangwende (sub-humid, natural region II) and Mudzi (semi-arid, natural region IV). to show that farmers regard maize as a ...

Targeting recommendations for small farmers: the role of economic factors in Zimbabwe and Swaziland 

Low, A.R.C.; Makombe, G. (CIMMYT, 1989)
Natural conditions and major resource differences such as farm size are commonly used in on-farm research to define homogeneous 'recommendation domains' within which new technologies are tested. Successful trial results ...

The contribution of economic analysis in developing promising research agendas: a maize nitrogen x phosphorus trial in Zimbabwe 

Mataruka, D.F.; Makombe, G.; Low, A.R.C. (CIMMYT, 1990)
Maize accounts for 70% of Zimbabwe's cereal growing area. Its productivity, particularly in the communal areas, is limited by both soil and moisture constraints. Most soils in communal areas are coarse-textured sands derived ...

Chimanga cha makolo, hybrids and composites: farmers' adoption of maize technology in Malawi, 1989-90 

Smale, M.; Kaunda, Z.H.W.; Makina, H.L.; Mkandawire, M.M.M.K.; Msowoya, M.N.S.; Mwale, D.J.E.K.; Heisey, P.W. (CIMMYT, 1992)
During the 1989-90 and 1990-91 cropping seasons, researchers from CIMMYT and the Evaluation Units of the Malawian Ministry of Agriculture (MOA) collected data to profile farmers' adoption behavior and varietal choices, and ...

Extent and causes of low yield in maize planted late by smallholder farmers in sub-humid areas of Zimbabwe 

Waddington, S.R.; Mudhara, M.; Hlatshwayo, M.D.; Kunjeku, P. (CIMMYT, 1991)
Diagnostic work was undertaken during 1987-91 to determine the area of maize planted late by smallholder farmers in sub-humid (Natural Regions 2 and 3) communal areas of Zimbabwe, the grain yield losses encountered, and ...

Dissection of a major QTL qhir1 conferring maternal haploid induction ability in maize 

Nair, S.K.; Molenaar, W.; Melchinger, A.E; Prasanna, B.M.; Martinez, L.; Lopez, L.A.; Chaikam, V. (Springer, 2017)
In vivo haploid induction in maize can be triggered in high frequencies by pollination with special genetic stocks called haploid inducers. Several genetic studies with segregating populations from non-inducer x inducer ...
