Soyabean response to rhizobium inoculation across sub-Saharan Africa: Patterns of variation and the role of promiscuity
Improving bacterial nitrogen fixation in grain legumes is central to sustainable intensification of agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa. In the case of soyabean, two main approaches have been pursued: first, promiscuous ...
Problem soils in cool season food legumes- Current knowledge and future prospects
Problem soils impose various stresses on plants and reduce crop yield significantly. As a
sizeable area under food legume crops falls under the problem soils, development of tolerant
varieties and appropriate agronomic ...
Screening of Rwandan and Kenyan potato varieties to predominant strains of Ralstonia solanacearum species complex of Rwanda
Bacterial wilt (BW), caused by Ralstonia solanacearum species complex (RSSC), leads to
substantial potato yield losses in Rwanda. Studies were conducted to test the
pathogenicity of predominant RSSC phylotypes on six ...
Pest risk analysis on Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum, causative organism of Xanthomonas wilt on banana, on plants-for-planting
Recognising that Xanthomas campestris pv. musacearum (Xcm), causal agent of Xanthomons wilt (Xw) of banana, is endemic to the Great Lakes region, the Pest Risk Analysis(PRA) considers the justification for implementing ...
What role for legumes in sustainable intensification? – case studies in Western Kenya and Northern Ghana for PROIntensAfrica
N2Africa was selected as a case study within the PROIntensAfrica initiative. In this case study, N2Africa focused on the potential role of legumes in sustainable intensification. The case study was conducted in two of the ...
Mapping Quantitative Trait Loci of Resistance to Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus and Leaf Spots in a Recombinant Inbred Line Population of Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) from SunOleic 97R and NC94022
Peanut is vulnerable to a range of diseases, such as Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) and
leaf spots which will cause significant yield loss. The most sustainable, economical and
eco-friendly solution for managing peanut ...
Overview of hybrid pigeonpea seed production technology and its on-farm validation
Pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] is known for its high protein grains and it occupies an important place in subsistence agriculture of tropics and sub-tropics. The major constraint of the crop has been its low ...
Wide range of genetic variabilrty for herbicide tolerance in Faba bean
Weeds have emerged as major constraint to faba bean productivity. A study was caried out to evaluate
faba bean lines to post-emergence herbicides with 210 g a.i.lha Metribuzin (photosynthesis inhibitor, PI), 82 ga.i.lha ...
