Secondary traits in parental inbreds and hybrids under stress and non-stress environments in tropical maize

2003-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Secondary traits other than grain yield (GY) have been successfully used to enhance the rate of genetic improvement for maize (Zea mays L.) populations under abiotic stresses. With increasing trend towards the development of hybrids in the tropics there is a need to understand the genetics of these traits in inbred-hybrid breeding systems. The objectives of this study were to estimate the general combining abiliti...
