Combining ability and GGE biplot analyses for resistance to northern leaf blight in tropical and subtropical elite maize inbred lines
2013-05-01
Abstract excerpt
The incidence and severity of northern leaf blight (NLB) disease has increased in Southern Africa in the past years with previously resistant cultivars being affected; implying more resistant sources have to be identified and inheritance of NLB resistance investigated. Therefore, 45 F₁ hybrids generated in a half diallel mating of ten elite maize inbred lines were evaluated in six environments for combining abilit...
