Combining Ability for Ear Prolificacy and Response of Prolific Maize (Zea May L.) Hybrids to Low Nitrogen Stress
… cultivars for low N tolerance locally. The combining ability approach can be used as a tool for breeding desirable cultivars. In order to improve grain yield in maize, it is important to consider ear prolificacy which is a major yield component. Therefore this study was designed to estimate …

Characterization and potential for the genetic improvement of pigeonpea (cajanus cajan ) landraces
… food for human consumption, livestock feeds and fixes considerable amounts of atmospheric nitrogen, thus improving soil fertility. Local farmers utilize traditional unimproved cultivars that are inherently low yielding limiting the adoption of the crop. The narrow genetic base of pigeonpea …
