Combining Ability and Heterosis of Algerian Saharan Maize Populations (<i>Zea mays</i> L.) for Tolerance to No-Nitrogen Fertilization and Drought

Combining Ability and Heterosis of Algerian Saharan Maize Populations (<i>Zea mays</i> L.) for Tolerance to No-Nitrogen Fertilization and Drought

Drought and low nitrogen are major stresses for maize (<i>Zea mays</i> L.), and maize populations from the Sahara Desert are potential sources of stress tolerance. The objectives were to assess the tolerance and varietal and heterosis effects of Algerian populations under no-nitrogen fer...
