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 ...
Overcoming Phosphorus Deficiency in West African Pearl Millet and Sorghum Production Systems: Promising Options for Crop Improvement

Sustainable use and conservation of Vitex doniana Sweet: unlocking the propagation ability using stem cuttings
One of the major constraints for domesticating widely used wild tree
resources by local communities is the lack of adequate propagation techniques.
In the case of Vitex doniana, seed propagation has usually been reported ...
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 ...
Agricultural ecosystems and their services: the vanguard of sustainability?
Sustainable Development Goals offer an opportunity to improve human well-being while conserving natural resources. Ecosystem services highlight human well-being benefits ecosystems, including agricultural ecosystems, ...
Sustainable intensification of agriculture for human prosperity and global sustainability
There is an ongoing debate on what constitutes sustainable intensification of agriculture (SIA). In this paper, we propose that a paradigm for sustainable intensification can be defined and translated into an operational ...
A Genome-Wide Association Study on the Seedless Phenotype in Banana (Musa spp.) Reveals the Potential of a Selected Panel to Detect Candidate Genes in a Vegetatively Propagated Crop
Banana (Musa sp.) is a vegetatively propagated, low fertility, potentially hybrid and polyploid
crop. These qualities make the breeding and targeted genetic improvement of this crop a
difficult and long process. 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 ...
