Sweet sorghum:agronomic practice for food, animal feed and fuel production in Sub-Saharan Africa [PDF]

, 2019
Sweet sorghum is a cereal that belongs to the species Sorghum bicolor (L) Moench. Although the crop is reportedly native to Africa, it is grown worldwide largely because it thrives well under wide rainfall regimes, varied day lengths, soil conditions and

Testcross performance of Striga-resistant maize inbred lines and testers with varying levels of Striga reaction

CABI Agriculture and Bioscience
Background Using a desirable tester is considered one method used to maximise genetic differences among test crosses derived from new inbred lines and improves the overall performance of maize. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the potency of the tester

Progeny testing of tropical and sub-tropical maize lines for grain yield and Striga resistance

Scientific Reports
Maize production (Zea mays L.) suffers severe losses due to infestations of Striga hermonthica (Sh) and S. asiatica (Sa). These challenges highlight the need for high-yielding Striga-resistant hybrids.
