Conduct adaptive trials in target sites (locations) in collaboration with NARS
Fifty-seven introgression lines (ILs) that combine early maturity with foliar fungal disease resistance were shared with six national partners, and multi-location evaluation of these ILs in disease hotspots recorded ...
Bradyrhizobium inoculants enhance grain yields of soybean and cowpea in northern Ghana
This study evaluated the symbiotic effectiveness and economic evaluation of Rhizobium
inoculants with the objective of recommending the most effective inoculant strain
for soybean and cowpea production in Northern Ghana. ...
Virulence profiling of F. udum isolates to understand the current status of race/pathotypes prevalent in major pigeonpea growing areas in India
Out of 111 isolates, total 67 isolates were selected for virulence profiling based on geographical location, pathogenicity, cultural and morphological characters. The F. udum isolates represented 38 districts belonging to ...
Leverage Government programmes, farmer communities
Develop and promote decentralized seed models to organize production and supply of quality groundnut seed of improved varieties, and conduct training programs to farmers and extension staff.
High-yielding soybean and cowpea
In 2016, three soybean genotypes; one early (TGx 1835-10E), one medium (TGx-1904-6F) and one late (TGx-1951-3F) maturing were evaluated for high yield and drought tolerance in three agro-ecologies in Mozambique: Ruace, ...
Molecular and morphological diversity in Phytophthora cajani isolates in India
Morphological and cultural variability of 14 isolates of Phytophthora cajani collected from major pigeonpea growing areas in India was studied on different media namely potato dextrose agar (PDA), V8 juice agar (V8JA), ...
Advances, challenges and opportunities in cool-season food legumes in dry area
Cool-season food legumes (chickpea, lentil, faba bean, field pea, and grass pea) are an integral part of subsistence farming in dry areas because these crops are a great source of nutritious food, feed, and income to small ...
Anticlastogenic potential of pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) in white mice (Mus musculus L.)
This study investigated the anticlastogenic potential of International Crop Research Institute for Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) bred pigeonpea utilizing the micronucleus test using white mice models to determine the number ...
Response of promiscuous-nodulating soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) genotypes to Bradyrhizobium inoculation at three field sites in Mozambique
Soybean cultivation in Mozambique is dominated by smallholder farmers who use little or no inputs such as bacterial inoculants, often resulting in low yields. This study assessed the ability of TGx and non-TGx soybean ...
QDS of bush beans is established as a viable alternative to certified seed
In collaboration with local seed service, development partners organizations (Dos) e.g. NGOs/farmers organizations and public extension were enabled by PABRA members to select farmers who are able to produce and market ...
