Dataset for: Modern potato varietal release information in selected countries in Southeast and South Asia - test today
Seven countries in Southeast Asia which are considered major potato producing areas were selected this study. This study adopts a refined expert elicitation (EE) approach. EE workshops were used as an inexpensive alternative ...
Genetic Variability of Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) for Water Logging and Salinity Tolerance under in vitro and in vivo Conditions
Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) genotypes acquired from diverse sources, were screened for water logging and salinity tolerance under laboratory and field conditions. Analysis of variance revealed significant ...
Intercontinental Networks Between Africa and Asia Across the Indian Ocean: What Do Village Chickens Reveal?
The prehistory of the Indian Ocean world can be likened to a complex historical jigsaw puzzle, and has attracted deep interest from various dis- ciplines (Chaudhuri 1985; Pearson 2011). The objective has been to find and ...
Enhancing the value of genetic resources for use in pigeonpea improvement
The ICRISAT genebank
conserves over 13,700 accessions of
pigeonpea from 74 countries. The collection
serves as insurance against genetic erosion
and provides rich source of diversity for crop
improvement. Pigeonpea ...
Response of groundnut to plant density and phosphorous application in the Sudan savanna zone of Nigeria
Despite the recent release of several improved varieties of groundnut in Nigeria the productivities have not
increase significantly due to lack of commensurate recommendation in agronomic practices. Two groundnut
varieties ...
Climate Smart Agriculture for Building Resilience and Improving Livelihoods in Rainfed Areas
The biggest challenge, human kind facing in the 21st century is to cope up with the impacts of the climate change which is affecting
the sustainable development globally. The IPCC (Inter Governmental Panel on Climate Change) ...
Assessment of millet-groundnut intercropping systems efficiency in Jigawa and Kano states.
In this study, an intercropping experiment consisting of millet and groundnut was established at Dutse (Jigawa) and
Minjibir (Kano) to compare the efficiencies of intercropping systems. Two intercropping systems (2:2 and ...
Extra-early chickpea and lentil varieties for Southeast Asia and East Africa
Development of extra-early varieties of chickpea and lentil offers opportunities for intensification and diversification of existing cropping systems in addition to introduction in new niches such as rice fallows in South ...
Genetics of virulence and pathogenic diversity for Ascochyta Blight affecting Chickpea
This research was conducted to study the inheritance of virulence, mating
type distribution, pathogen diversity for Ascochyta rabiei affecting chickpea, and to
screen sub set chickpea accessions against the highly virulent ...
Pigeonpea breeding in eastern and southern Africa: challenges and opportunities
Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan [L.] Millspaugh) is an important multipurpose grain legume crop primarily grown in tropical and subtropical areas of Asia, Africa and Latin America. In Africa, the crop is grown for several purposes ...
