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 ...
Developing selection criteria for improving grain yield of early maturing maize.
(Makerere University, 2014-04)
Early maturing maize genotypes yield 15-30% less than medium-late maturing ones and
improving the yield of early maturing maize is a great challenge. Grain-filling rate (GFR) and effective grain-filling duration (EGFD) ...
