Abstract

Maize (Zea mays L.) yields are significantly lower in the tropical-highlands than other environments predominantly due to the lack of welladapted and improved cultivars and due to genotype by environment (G 9 E) interaction. The objectives of this study were to determine G 9 E interaction and yield stability of quality protein maize (QPM) singlecross hybrids recently developed from tropical-highland adapted inbred lines, and to identify promising genotypes and representative test and seed production environments....
