Genetic gains in tropical maize hybrids across moisture regimes with multi-trait-based index selection

Genetic gains in tropical maize hybrids across moisture regimes with multi-trait-based index selection

Unpredictable weather vagaries in the Asian tropics often increase the risk of a series of abiotic stresses in maize-growing areas, hindering the efforts to reach the projected demands. Breeding climate-resilient maize hybrids with a cross-tolerance to drought and waterlogging is necessary yet chall...
