Napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum Schumach.) is a fast-growing perennial grass native to Sub-Saharan Africa that is widely grown across the tropical and subtropical regions of the world. It is a multipurpose forage crop, primarily used to feed cattle in cut and carry feeding systems. Characteriz...

Knowledge base for best practices of genebank management. Why and how it was developed.
Biotechnology techniques have been widely used for legumes - important crops with excellent nutritional characteristics and soil improvement qualities. Limited work has been carried out with underutilized legume crops such as velvet bean (Mucuna spp.), which have great potential for multiple uses...

Ninety–eight accessions of Cynodon, belonging to 4 different species and including several hybrids were haracterised using a set of 23 agro–morphological characters. The collection included both collections from natural populations
and breeding lines, selected among siblings
of open–pollinated pl...
