Performance of early- and intermediate-maturing maize hybrids for grain yield and secondary traits under multiple stress environments

Article scientifique 2026 Anglais

Résumé

Introduction: Maize productivity in Southern Africa remains below global averages due to multiple stress factor. Methods: This study evaluated 87 early-and intermediate-maturing maize hybrids across 13 environments (stress and non-stress) using an alpha lattie design. Results: across stress conditions. Ears per plant and ear height re key contributors to yield. Discussions: Multivariate analysis identified 20 high-perofimng, stable hybrids suitable for multi-environment testing.
