Combining Ability and Heterosis of Tolerance to Low Soil Nitrogen in Tropical Maize Cultivars Derived from Two Breeding Eras
Low soil nitrogen is one of the principal abiotic stresses affecting maize productivity in Sub-saharan Africa. Field studies were conducted at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), Ibadan during the cropping seasons for three years, from 2010 to 2012, with ten open pollinated m...
