Database of climate, crop soil and management as required to calibrate and validate the models
The database consists of data on soil properties of both on station and 20 farmer fields, household characteristics of 301 households, woreda level crop production statistics for the past 5 years, land use maps and data ...
Expression profiling from different tissues and developmental stages to define gene atlas
Thirty seven different samples representing 19 aerial, seven underground, two germinal and nine seed development related tissues from five different developmental stages have been targeted. The five developmental stages ...
Testing and evaluating integrated soil conservation, fertility management and crop intensification options for their complementary benefits and limitations
The report describes the status of various activities selected and implemented as part of sustainable intensification in East Shewa action site, Ethiopia. The proposed activities cover three major intervention areas viz., ...
Molecular and morphological diversity in Phytophthora cajani isolates in India
Morphological and cultural variability of 14 isolates of Phytophthora cajani collected from major pigeonpea growing areas in India was studied on different media namely potato dextrose agar (PDA), V8 juice agar (V8JA), ...
