Variability of grain-filling traits in early maturing CIMMYT tropical maize inbred lines
(Crop Science Society of America, 2014)
Grain-filling rate (GFR), effective grain-filling duration (EGFD), and total grain-filling duration (TGFD) are important physiological traits of maize (Zea mays L.) grain yield (GY) formation.
To devise effective breeding ...
Evaluation of the usefulness criterion to identify Bi-Parental maize populations with the best potential for producing superior inbreds.
(Makerere University, 2014)
Because resources are obviously restricted, it is not possible to advance all the progenies generated to later generations, so there is need to reduce the number of populations that will be subject to intensive testing and ...
The effect of weather on crop yields: A case study of the maize crop in Masindi District Western Uganda.
(Makerere University, 2014)
Weather and crop yield is a crucial consideration for food security in Uganda. This study considered a relationship between weather and maize yield as an aid to emphasize the significance and need for weather information ...
