Cross-coordination with Sub-Regional Organizations to Maximize Scale and Impact
The CRP-GLDC will benefit end users and create economic opportunities through contracts and partnerships with Sub-Regional Organizations (SROs). While GLDC’s target countries are limited, benefits from Flagship Program ...
Genetic bases of early root growth in pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum l.)
This presentation describes the genetic bases of early root growth in pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum l.) and consider pearl millet as as a crop for African agriculture adaption to future climates.
Baseline values for GLDC crops in sub-Saharan Africa and southern Asia
Datasets to update baseline values in the International Model for the Policy Analysis of Agricultural Commodities and Trade (IMPACT) for GLDC crops in sub-Saharan Africa and southern Asia
Priority Setting, Product Lines and Prospective Technologies: Implications from Phase I for a Consolidated Grain Legumes and Dryland Cereals CRP for Phase II
In moving to Phase II, the Dryland Cereals, Grain Legumes, and Dryland Systems multicenter CGIAR Research Programs (CRPs) are to be consolidated into a Grain Legumes and Dryland Cereals CRP. This report assesses the ...
Revealing plant ideotypes amenable to increased planting density to boost the productivity in pearl millet through public-private partnership in Asia and Africa
The innovation is in trying to mimic in pearl millet, in a quicker manner, a similar increase in sowing density that has happened over a century in maize. The innovation would consist in screening and using donor parents ...
Improving selection efficiency for drought adaption in pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) by tracking plant canopy traits using LeasyScan Project Completion Report
Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) is grown on about 8.5 m ha with production of about 9.5 m tons (AICMIP, 2016). For the current study hybrids from zone A1, A and B were selected along with their parents. Pearl ...
GLDC List of Publications 2017-2018
List of publications related, but not limited to the CGIAR Annual Report template (edition 2018:https://drive.google.com/file/d/1A9MY3BmqJci9tUGlIzIwpFgj2P1XdteL/view) as support document to the table 6: Numbers of ...
Characterization of GLDC Mega-environments
South Asia (SA) and sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) are characterized by two major agroecologies of interest to the Grain Legume and Dryland Cereal (GLDC) CRP proposal: the semi-arid and sub-humid drylands. SSA can be further ...
Improvement of pearl millet module in APSIM. Characterization of the main water stress patterns within pearl millet production agroecologies in A1, A, B zone (focus on A1&A)
Since tillering is one of the key environmental adaptive mechanism of sorghum&pearl millet (e.g. vanOosterom et al 1998, Jordan et al 2003, Borrell et al 2015), availability of a dynamic tillering module is a crucial feature ...
Unpacking ‘Demand’ for GLDC Crops
The demand for GLDC crops covers a swathe of end uses, details of which are available in household expenditure and value chain studies, many of which were commissioned during Phase 1 of the Dryland Cereals and Grain Legumes ...
