Upgrade of LeasyScan platform (load cells equipment)
In 2014 the first phase of the LeasyScan platform was put in place, consisting of the scanning technology to assess leaf canopy development features, together with a prototype of 50 load cells to measure plant transpiration ...
Groundnut lines that combine several desirable traits into single genotype to meet the needs of the farmer, consumer and industry.
Single-seed descent, pedigree, and backcross methods of breeding are used to improve the target traits. Selection in segregating populations are enabled by (a) markers for three traits, resistance to rust and late leaf ...
