Relationship of molecular genetic distance of seven quality protein maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines with specific combining ability and grain yield of hybrids
(2012-08-30)
Quality protein maize (QPM) with the opaque-2 gene has double the amount of the essential amino acids (tryptophan and lysine) as compared to normal endosperm maize but the gene is associated with undesirable agronomic ...
Evaluating Hybrid-Maize Simulation Model for Grain Yield Estimation in Hybrid Seed Maize Production
(2012-08-30)
The study was carried out to determine the effect of Male Planting Date (MPD) and Female Plant Population (FPP) on the Grain Yield (GY), yield components and flowering of a three-way hybrid. The study also evaluated ...
Evaluation of Tillage Practices for Maize (Zea mays) Grown on Different Land-Use Systems in Eastern Zambia
(Kluwer Academic Publishers., 2004-01-22)
Improved fallows of Sesbania sesban (Sesbania) have been known to improve soil physical and chemical
properties and increase crop yield compared to traditional fallows. However, the effects of soil tillage practices after ...

Combining ability and GXE analysis for grain yield performance among CIMMYT germplasm
(2016-06)
The International Centre for Maize and Wheat Improvement (CIMMYT) develops inbred lines
and hybrids yearly that have several breeding and commercial attributes. However, the recently
developed inbred lines that are adapted ...
