Nitrogen-Use Efficiency and Gene Expression Profiling of Tropical Maize Hybrids Selected for Contrasting Responses to Nitrogen Fertilizer

Low soil Nitrogen (N) and sub-optimal N fertilizer application result in low Grain Yield (GY) in maize. Genotypes with improved N-Use Efficiency (NUE) are beneficial to low-input agriculture. To facilitate the genetic improvement of tropical maize for NUE, information is required on the relative imp...
