Product information is based on data from the CIMMYT East Africa 2020 Regional Trial (CIM20EAPP1A) and 2021 regional on-farm trials (EA-ROFT 2021-1A).
Abbreviations:
AI = artificial infestation/inoculation
FAW = fall armyworm
GDD = growing degree-days (°C)
GLS = Grey Leaf Spot
Low N = managed low nitrogen
masl = meters above sea level
MLN = maize lethal necrosis
MSV = maize streak virus
nat. = natural infestation
NUE = Nitrogen-use efficient
RS = random stress
SC = single-cross
TLB = Turcicum Leaf Blight |
Plant and ear aspects are scored on 1-5 scale, where 1 = desirable and 5 = undesirable characteristics |
