Genotype x Environment Interaction and Yield Stability of Maize (2008)
Maize cultivars vary in their response to variable environmental conditions. Twenty maize cultivars were tested at nine locations in Ethiopia (1100 - 2240 masl) in randomized complete block design...
Combining Ability of Transitional Highland Maize Inbred Lines (2008)
Asefa, B, Mohammed, H, Zelleke, H
Information on the combining ability of highland maize (Zea mays L.) germplasm is of great value for future hybrid development programs. Such a study has been poorly exploited in the highland areas...
Estifanos, E, Bultosa, G, Zelleke, H, Singh, H
Twenty bread wheat lines selected on the basis of their average grain protein content and yield were evaluated for six agronomic and eight baking quality traits associated with bread-making quality....
Advances in Improving Harvest Index and Grain Yield of Maize in Ethiopia (2007)
The local maize varieties are inefficient in transferring assimilates to the ear sink and as a result they are low yielding. To replace these low yielding local varieties by high yielding ones,...
Heterosis and combining ability in a diallel among eight elite maize populations (1970)
Crossing maize (Zea mays L.) genotypes obtained from different sources could result in better utilisation of hybrid vigor. Such heterotic response is poorly exploited in the drought-stressed areas of...
