Obcordate leaf shape hybrid parental line development
Quality hybrid production is the key requisite in the commercial hybrid production. The genetically uniform parental lines and commercial hybrids are necessary in production and marketing of quality hybrid crops. Grow out ...
Agronomic management options for sustaining chickpea yield under climate change scenario
The impact of future climate change on the chickpea productivity was studied using the sequence
analysis tool of DSSAT V 4.5 to simulate fallow-chickpea rotation at four locations viz Anantapur, Kurnool,
Kadapa and Prakasam ...
Food Legume Nurseries: International Nursery Report 1983/84
The main objective of the program is to provide a mechanism for the multi-location testing of the genetic material of chickpea, faba beans, and lentils originating from national and International programs.
The testing aims ...
How to succeed in implementing community-based breeding programs: Lessons from the field in Eastern and Southern Africa
Breeding programs involving either centralized nucleus schemes and/or importation of exotic germplasm for crossbreeding were not successful and sustainable in most Africa countries. Community-based breeding programs (CBBPs) ...
Growth curve analysis in different generations of Boer x Central Highland goats using alternative estimation models
Growth curve analysis can help to optimize the management, determine nutritional requirements,
predict the weight of animals at a specific age, and to select highly productive animals.
Therefore, this study aimed to find ...
Geographic priorities for research and development on dryland cereals and legumes (DCL)
Maps, geography and spatial
analysis are increasingly important
for developing R&D programs,
priority setting, monitoring,
impacts assessment and reporting.
• But the community of researchers
working on this topics has ...
Establishing a Goat Community-Based Breeding Program in Mali
Throughout history, the practices of livestock husbandry have been evolving with the aim of improving animal production to meet the changing needs and preferences of consumers. Among these practices, breeding has played a ...
A Training on Multi-Trait Selection Index and Random Genetic Analysis in Wolayta Sodo, Ethiopia
A two-day advanced training session on Multi-Trait Selection Index, and Random Genetic Analysis was conducted in Wolaita Sodo city, in Ethiopia. The training specifically targeted researchers involved in implementing sheep ...
Enhancing Capacity in Scaling Community-Based Breeding Programs for Development Partners and Communities in Different Regions of Ethiopia
Since 2009, Community-based Breeding Programs (CBBPs) have been successfully implemented in Ethiopia, resulting in significant genetic advancements for the selected traits within the program.
Modelling activities in peanut/chickpea (paper writing)
The SSM-legume model of Soltani and Sinclair (2011) was used in this study. It was used here to test the validity of Marksim-generated weather data, to assess the extent of yield reductions caused by water deficit, and ...
