Genetic Variability and Inter-relatedness of Agronomic Traits of Single Cross Hybrid Maize in Contrasting Soil Nitrogen-nutritional Conditions

Dotun Joseph Ogunniyan, Samuel A. Olakojo & David K. Ojo · International Journal of Plant & Soil Science · 2019

Background: Lowering the nitrogen demand is the most cost effective and sustainable option to increase grain yield of maize in poor fertility soil. Aim: This study was conducted to estimate the variability and inter-traits’ association of white and yellow hybrid maize in soil nit...
