Identification of hyper nodulation mutant lines in chickpea using TiLLING population
For genotyping the following steps were performed for 1300 TILLING lines:
Fresh leaf tissue was collected from 1300 mutant lines
DNA was extracted.
DNA quality and quantity was measured by using NanoDrop, ...
Effect of phosphorus (P) application on nutrient uptake, biomass, pod and seed formation in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp])
Phosphorous (P) deficiency is a serious problem which limits the
productivity of cowpea in sub-Saharan Africa.
• P deficiency affects negatively the formation of nodule (1, 2) and the
symbiotic fixation of N2 by limiting ...
Understanding variability in soybean yield and response to P-fertilizer and rhizobium inoculants on farmers' fields in northern Nigeria
Soybean yields could benefit from the use of improved varieties, phosphate-fertilizer and rhizobium inoculants. In this study, we evaluated the results of widespread testing of promiscuous soybean varieties with four ...
