Aim: To determine the possible effects of environment and genotypic differences on root yield and other related traits. Methodology: 43 improved cassava genotypes were evaluated for root yield, root number, root dry matter, cassava mosaic disease and Cassava bacterial disease. Th...
Five lowland rice genotypes obtained from International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) Ibadan were grown during the rainy season of 2013/2014 to study factor analysis for yield and its components in rice (Oryza sativa L). The factors are the genotypes and numbers of see...
