Correlation between agronomic and stem borer resistant traits in maize: Implications in selection

Abstract: Objective:The interrelationship between agronomic and resistant traits of two stem borer species, and its influence on selection was studied in a yellow maize population, DMR ESR-Y, at Ibadan between 2009 and 2010. Methodology and results: Two hundred and fifty (250) full-sib progenies of the population with three checks were evaluated. Resistant traits had negative correlations with most agronomic traits including grain yield (GY). GY had significant relationship with days to 50% pollen shed, (DTA) (rg = 0.49… Show more
