Character Associations and Correlation Networks for Yield-Related and Vegetative Traits in Open-Pollinated and Hybrid Maize (Zea Mays L.) Genotypes in Contrasting Savannah Ecologies

Crop yield in maize (Zea mays L.) is a complex quantitative trait, making character associations crucial for developing indirect selection criteria. This study evaluated the phenotypic and genotypic associations among 22 growth, phenological, and yield traits across 10 elite maize genotypes. Field trials were conduc...
