Abstract:Smallholder maize farming systems in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) are vulnerable to drought-induced yield losses, which significantly impact food security and livelihoods within these communities. Mapping and characterizing genomic regions associated with water stress tolerance in tropical maize is essential for future breeding initiatives targeting this region. In this study, three biparental F3 populations composed of 753 families were evaluated in Kenya and Zimbabwe and genotyped with high-density single nucleo… Show more
