Overcoming Phosphorus Deficiency in West African Pearl Millet and Sorghum Production Systems: Promising Options for Crop Improvement
West Africa (WA) is among the most food insecure regions. Rapid human population
growth and stagnating crop yields greatly contribute to this fact. Poor soil fertility,
especially low plant available phosphorus (P) is ...
Pre-breeding using wild relatives of barley
A total of 100 accessions of H. sponteneum were evaluated for powdery mildew and yellow rust at Marchouch station in Morocco. More than 83% of these lines combine resistance to both diseases. These accessions are under ...
Genotypic and phenotypic changes in wild barley (Hordeum vulgare subsp. spontaneum) during a period of climate change in Jordan
Climate change and other anthropogenic
disturbances can lead to the loss of genetic variation
and thereby affect evolutionary potential and survival
of plant populations in the wild. We examined these
predictions in the ...
Effects of early mycorrhization and colonized root length on low-soilphosphorus resistance of West African pearl millet
Phosphorus (P) deficiency at early seedling stages is a critical determinant for survival and final
yield of pearl millet in multi-stress Sahelian environments. Longer roots and colonization with arbuscular
mycorrhizal ...
