Release of 1 or 2 stable soybean varieties in each region
Twelve genotypes were planted at two sites in Malawi, Dowa and Nkotakota, under zero phosphorus application and at 24 kg/ha phosphorus application. Due to the severe drought, trials at Nkotakota were written off. The results ...
Development of Sorghum Guinea Naine Diversified Population (GNDP)
Hundred and twelve S3 progenies from farmers’ selections in the Guinea Naine Diversified Population (GNDP) were phenotyped in two contrasted environments, low P and high P fields. Mean traits such as plant height, internode ...
Development of proteome library from FOC inoculated chickpea resistant and susceptible cultivars under elevated CO2 through MALDI and MS-MS analysis
Total root proteins of control and Foc infected chickpea (JG 62 and WR 315) were extracted. Isoelectric focusing (IEF) of extracted proteins was carried out using immobilized pH gradient (IPG) strips. 2-DE gels were scanned ...
Multipurpose sorghum development and release in WCA
The objective of this activity was to identify multipurpose sorghum adapted to sudanian zone for better integration of crop and livestock (grain, quality fodder production). The second objective was to registrate/release ...
Development of segregating populations for heat stress tolerance in chickpea
Breeding materials for heat tolerance were at different stages of development. A total of 4 F1s, 5 F2 populations, 3 F4 populations, and 16 F5 populations were advanced to next generation in normal season 2015-16 at ...
Obcordate leaf shape hybrid parental line development
Quality hybrid production is the key requisite in the commercial hybrid production. The genetically uniform parental lines and commercial hybrids are necessary in production and marketing of quality hybrid crops. Grow out ...
