Genotyping-by-sequencing based genetic mapping reveals large number of epistatic interactions for stem rot resistance in groundnut
Key message
Genetic mapping identified large number of epistatic interactions indicating the complex genetic architecture for stem rot disease resistance.
Abstract
Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) is an important global crop ...
A recipe for success? Learning from the rapid adoption of improved chickpea varieties in Ethiopia
Many studies detail constraints deemed responsible for the limited adoption of new
technologies among smallholder farmers in sub-Saharan Africa. By contrast, here we
study the conditions that led to the remarkably fast ...
Poverty eradication and food security through agriculture in Africa: Rethinking objectives and entry points
Agriculture in Africa is expected to meet the dual objectives of providing food and helping people to escape poverty. African agriculture is dominated by smallholdings and donors generally target their agricultural support ...
Integrated transcriptome, small RNA and degradome sequencing approaches provide insights into Ascochyta blight resistance in chickpea
Ascochyta blight (AB) is one of the major biotic stresses known to limit the chickpea production worldwide. To dissect the complex mechanisms of AB resistance in chickpea, three approaches,namely, transcriptome, small RNA ...
