Journal Article 1994

Autor: Ekanayake, I.J. Ortiz, R. Vuylsteke, D.R.

Leaf age effects on the leaf conductance to water vapour diffusion of the adaxial and abaxial leaf surfaces were measured in the morning and in the afternoon on 17 different plantain and banana (Musa spp.) genotypes. The irradiance levels increased three-fold while leaf to air vapour pressure def...

A substantial impact on Africa agriculture can be made through research on crop improvement for the extensive inland valley agro-ecosystems (IVS) extending from the humid forest to the savanna zones in sub saharan Africa. Systematic surveys of farmers have shown that cassava is a favoured upland ...

Cultivated plantains and bananas (Musa spp.) are important staple crops in the humid forest and midaltitude ecologies of sub-Saharan Africa. Their water requirement is relatively high and they are very sensitive to dry soil conditions, which greatly limits their range of cultivation. While long-t...

The distribution of the cyanogenic potential in cassava germplasm has been found to be a continuum from very low values to high levels. Within the same genotype, the cyanogenic potential is affected by the planting season; it is low when planted at the beginning of the rainy season, and high when...

An extensively distributed root system may reduce the probability of crop failure during periods of restricted water supply . A quantitative measure of root distribution in the soil profile, i .e . pulling resistance of roots (PR), was tested at two moderately droughted tropical field sites . A t...

Leaf resistances of 14 cultivated potato genotypes ( Solanum spp.) and three tuber-bearing wild Solanum species were compared when plants were grown under water stress at two tropical sites. Factors investigated were diurnal changes in leaf resistance, the effect of plant age, transient drought v...

Flower initiation in some plant species is associated with the physical and chemical soil characteristics such as the availability of certain mineral elements and soil moisture status. The objective of this study was to examine the effects of soil physicochemical traits on the differential flower...

Cyanide is toxic to most living beings. Cassava roots release cyanide in the human body if they are not properly processed before consumption. The environmental effects on the cyanogenic potential (0.1» and some cuIinary qualities of five divergent cassava clones were studied in two agro-ecologic...
