The response of wheat (Triticum aestivum cv. ‘Enkoy’) to application of leaf prunings of nine agroforestry-tree species was investigated in a field trial and a six-week pot trial. The tree species were Grevillea robusta, Erythrina abyssinica, Gliricidia sepium, Albizia schimperiana, Acacia niloti...

Fifty six germplasm accessions of the important East African fodder crop Napier grass, Pennisetum purpureum, and its hybrids with P. glaucum, were characterised using 67 random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) fragments. No or very low intra-accession variation was found for 49 of the accessions ...

Aqueous acetone extracts of mature leaves from 10 accessions of two species of Sesbania plants were prepared and anlysed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The HPLC phenolic profiles were used to develop a classification rule to distinguish between accessions. Out of the 44 mature ...

Acacia angustissima has potential in agroforestry systems for forage production in tropical environments. However, feeding trials indicate that the leaves are potentially toxic. Signs of toxicity in sheep are similar to those presented by sheep fed flatpea (Lathyrus sylvestris) hay which contains...
Phenolic concentration in the leaves from 103 different accessions of Sesbania sesban (L) Merr was determined and HPLC was used to analyse the extractable phenolics. The chromatograms were subjected to cluster analysis. large variation was observed between accessions in the soluble phenolic and i...
