Molecular diversity and selective sweeps in maize inbred lines adapted to African highlands
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019)
Little is known on maize germplasm adapted to the African highland agro-ecologies. In this study, we analyzed high-density genotyping by sequencing (GBS) data of 298 African highland adapted maize inbred lines to (i) assess ...

Quantitative trait loci mapping in maize for resistance to larger grain borer
(Consiglio per la Ricerca e la Sperimentazione in Agricoltura, 2018)
Storability of maize grain is constrained by the larger grain borer (LGB) (Prostephanus truncatus). Host plant resistance is the most feasible way to manage LGB among smallholder farmers. Breeding for resistance to this ...
