Diallelic analysis of maize streak virus resistance in quality protein maize topcrosses

2017-12-01

Abstract excerpt

The use of maize streak virus (MSV) resistance cultivars as donors in broadening the quality protein maize (QPM) inbreds would not only reduce the virulence of the disease but also improve grain yield and quality protein in Africa. This experiment was executed by evaluating the general (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) of MSV resistance and QPM inbred lines for MSV resistance disease, grain yield and qual...
