Gene action and reciprocal effects for ear rot resistance in crosses derived from five tropical maize populations

2010-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Devastating maize grain yield and quality losses are caused by Aspergillus flavus, Fusarium verticillioides and Stenocarpella maydis ear rots especially in tropical countries. Therefore, combining ability of tropical maize populations for ear rot severity and ear rot-related traits was investigated. Ten full-sib progenies, comprising one resistant and one susceptible from each of the five populations, were selecte...
