Correlations, Path Coefficient Analysis and Heritability for Quantitative Traits in Finger Millet Landraces
Knowledge of association between traits and heritability is important in breeding for purposes of effective trait selection. Such information on finger millet in east Africa is very limited. This study was intended to ...
Incidence of blast in exotic fingermillet germplasm grown in post-entry quarantine isolation area
The National Bureau of Plant Genetic Resources (NBPGR) has been functioning as a nodal organization for introduction and exchange of plant genetic resources of varied agri-horticultural crops for research purposes. The ...

NAROMIL5 panicles at harvest
Genetic and nutritional profiling of finger millet germplasm collection in ESA
Total 400 diverse fingermillet lines were planted for DNA extraction in poly house for DNA extraction at ICRAF-Nairobi. These lines have been characterized at the ICRISAT field research station at Kiboko, Kenya for nutritional ...
Effect of Phosphate Levels on Soil Rhizosphere Nutrient Balances and Finger Millet Yield
Soil infertility is one of the main factors leading to low finger millet production in the semi-arid
tropics of Kenya. About 50-80% of P applied as fertilizer is adsorbed by soil and the amount of P
needed to achieve ...
Development of early generation mapping population for snapping trait in fingermillet
Total 200 F2 segregated lines ((Ex-Alupe-purple x KNE814) were planted for DNA extraction in polyhouse for DNA extraction at ICRAF, Nairobi, Kenya and later transferred to the Kiboko ICRISAT research station for characterization ...
