Status, genetic diversity and gaps in sorghum germplasm from South Asia conserved at ICRISAT genebank
The genebank at ICRISAT, India that serves as a world repository for sorghum germplasm conserves
39,234 accessions from 93 countries, including 6249 from seven South Asian countries: Afghanistan
(6), Bangladesh (9), India ...
Genome wide association studies (GWAS) of element contents in grain with a special focus on zinc and iron in a world collection of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)
Genome wide association studies (GWAS) were carried out to map Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) associated
with element contents in the grain using 336 spring barley. Of the elements analyzed, Fe content
ranged from 21.9 to ...
Analysis heterotic pools for hybrid sorghum breeding across the West-African Savannah zones based on genetic diversity analysis
For this study, a set of hybrids (over 200) was developed using new 16 A (14 new and 2 checks) lines and R lines from different breeding programs and countries. These hybrids were evaluated for their combining ability (GCA ...
Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning (MEL): Envisioning an Optimal Data Flow to achieve Development Outcomes
Impact in agricultural research is strictly related to the data flow quality within research for development institutions. Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (or Development Outcomes) is the final stage of the ...
Pistachio video lesson for farmers and agribusiness representatives
Pistachio video lesson for farmers and agribusiness representatives
Identify and promote best options of sorghum production management practices through genotype and soil management practices in farmers' field
An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect seed dressing with market available seed dressing chemicals and fertilizers on sorghum and millet in the sudan savannah of Kano State Nigeria. The seed dressing chemical ...
MEL Survey - Feedback on reporting 2016 "What we Learned"
Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) is a multi-center and multi-CRP online platform for integrated management, monitoring, and reporting of projects, from planning to budgeting, risks assessment and knowledge sharing. ...
Seedling and adult stage resistance to spot form of net blotch (SFNB) in spring barley and stability of adult stage resistance to SFNB in Morocco
The aims of this study were to identify resistance to spot form of net blotch (SFNB) in spring barley and to investigate the stability of SFNB resistance in Morocco. The seedling resistance to SFNB was evaluated by inoculating ...
Assessment of genetic diversity of sorghum [sorghum bicolor (l.) Moench] germplasm in East and Central Africa
The study of genetic diversity in crops has a strong impact on plant breeding and maintenance of genetic resources. Comprehensive knowledge of the genetic biodiversity of cultivated and wild sorghum germplasm is an important ...
Evaluate selected hybrids (25-49) across agro-ecologies in Kenya, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Sudan and Uganda
In Kenya and Tanzania hybrids IESH 22023, IESH 28005, IESH 22009, IESH 214016 and IESH 214016 had the best grain yields (4.370-6.889 t/ha) and overall agronomy and were selected for on-farm testing. These hybrids had ...
