Strategies and Innovative Approaches for Food Legumes Seed Delivery in Ethiopia
Seed is the only vehicle in crop technology promotion, adoption and impact enhancement. Legumes play an important role in food and nutritional security of smallholder farmers and sustainability of farming systems in Ethiopia. ...
Translational Genomics in Agriculture: Some Examples in Grain Legumes
Recent advances in genomics and associated disciplines like
bioinformatics havemade it possible to develop genomic resources, such as large-scale sequence data for any crop species.While these datasets have been proven ...
Land Suitability Mapping for Production of Chickpea, Faba Bean and Malt Barley Varieties in Ethiopia
Ethiopia's agriculture has been facing recurrent challenges and the country remains food insecure due to its ever-increasing population and chronically low agricultural productivity despite its high biophysical potential. ...
Current status of wilt/root rot diseases in major chickpea growing areas of Ethiopia
Wilt/root rot diseases are a major chickpea production constraint in Ethiopia causing yield losses by reducing the number of plants. To
determine the current status of disease incidence and distribution, surveys were ...
Correlation and Path Coefficient Analysis for Various Quantitative Traits in Desi Chickpea Genotypes under Rainfed Conditions in Ethiopia
Chickpea is rich in protein and micronutrients and plays a significant role in human diet especially as
accompaniment to staples, but grain yields in Ethiopia are still below the crop potential. Field experiments were
conducted ...
Symbiotic Effectiveness of Elite Rhizobia Strains Nodulating Desi Type Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) Varieties
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), is a multi-functional crop with important role in the diet as affordable protein
source and in sustaining soil fertility through nitrogen fixation. However, its productivity in Ethiopia of ...
Sustaining Farming Systems for Food Security and Economic Growth in Ethiopia
Farmer, industry and consumer preferred chickpea varieties identified and disseminated in 105 districts of Amhara, Oromia, SNNRP and Tigray regions. About 19 SPCs, 5 MPCs and 5 unions with membership of 11,024 (13.8% female) ...
Genotype by environment interaction on yield stability of desi type chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) at major chickpea producing areas of Ethiopia
This study was conducted to determine the interaction between chickpea genotypes with the environment (GxE) on the yield stability and adaptability of desi type chickpea genotypes (Cicer arietinum L.). Seventeen chickpea ...
