Kihara, JobMartius, ChristopherBationo, B. AndréThuita, Moses N.Lesueur, DidierHerrmann, LaetitiaVlek, Paul L.G.Amelung, Wulf[Soil aggregation and total diversity of bacteria and fungi in various Tillage systems of sub-humid and semi-arid Kenya]Soil aggregation and total diversity of bacteria and fungi in various Tillage systems of sub-humid and semi-arid Kenya

Low effectiveness of native strains remains a limitation to soybean productivity in sub-Saharan Africa; while in other countries commercial inoculants are produced that provide effective strains that stimulate N fixation and growth. An experiment was set up to evaluate the response of a dual purp...


Thuita, Moses N.Pypers, PieterHerrmann, LaetitiaOkalebo, Robert JohnOthieno, CalebMuema, EstherLesueur, Didier[Commercial rhizobial inoculants significantly enhance growth and nitrogen fixation of a promiscuous soybean variety in Kenyan soils]Commercial rhizobial inoculants significantly enhance growth and nitrogen fixation of a promiscuous soybean variety in Kenyan soils

Land degradation in the smallholder farming systems in sub-Saharan Africa is mainly related to insufficient adoption of sustainable agriculture technologies. This study was aimed at investigating the potential of biological inoculants to improve crop yields and control plant diseases in a profita...


Masso, C.Mukhongo, Ruth WilhemThuita, Moses N.Abaidoo, R.C.Ulzen, J.Kariuki, G.Kalumuna, M.[Biological inoculants for sustainable intensification of agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa smallholder farming systems]Biological inoculants for sustainable intensification of agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa smallholder farming systems

Nitrogen (N) fixation through legume-Rhizobium symbiosis is important for enhancing agricultural productivity and is therefore of great economic interest. Growing evidence indicates that other soil beneficial bacteria can positively affect symbiotic performance of rhizobia. Nodule endophytic plan...


Korir, H.Mungai, N.W.Thuita, Moses N.Hamba, Y.Masso, C.[Co-inoculation effect of rhizobia and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria on common bean growth in a low phosphorus soil]Co-inoculation effect of rhizobia and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria on common bean growth in a low phosphorus soil

Use of inorganic fertilizer is an essential practice to optimize crop productivity in the poor fertility soils in sub-Saharan Africa, but it has been linked to high cost of crop production, contamination of surface and/or ground water by nitrate leaching and eutrophication of surface water by pho...


Mukhongo, Ruth WilhemTumuhairwe, J.B.Ebanyat, PeterAbdelGadir, AbdelAziz H.Thuita, Moses N.Masso, C.[Production and use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi inoculum in sub-Saharan Africa: challenges and ways of improving]Production and use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi inoculum in sub-Saharan Africa: challenges and ways of improving

Thuita, Moses N.AbdelGadir, AbdelAziz H.Masso, C.[COMPRO approaches recommended to participating universities for incorporation in their degree and short-course curricula]COMPRO approaches recommended to participating universities for incorporation in their degree and short-course curricula

Soybean grain yields in sub-Saharan Africa have remained at approximately 50% below those attained in South America despite numerous efforts. A study was conducted in Siaya County (western Kenya) involving 107 farms with soils of different fertility status. The main objective was to test combinat...

Herselman, L.Chotte, Jean-LucThuita, Moses N.Lesueur, Didier[Effects of cropping systems, maize residues application and N fertilization on promiscuous soybean yields and diversity of native rhizobia in Central Kenya]Effects of cropping systems, maize residues application and N fertilization on promiscuous soybean yields and diversity of native rhizobia in Central Kenya

Cowpea N2 fixation and yield can be enhanced by selecting competitive and efficient indigenous rhizobia. Strains from contrasting agro-ecologies of Kilifi and Mbeere (Kenya) were screened. Two pot experiments were established consisting of 13 Bradyrhizobium strains; experiment 1 (11 Mbeere + CBA ...


Ndungu, S.M.Messmer, M.M.Ziegle, D.Thuita, Moses N.Vanlauwe, BernardFrossard, EmmanuelThonar, C.[Evaluation of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry for the competitiveness analysis of selected indigenous cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.) Bradyrhizobium strains from Kenya]Evaluation of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry for the competitiveness analysis of selected indigenous cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.) Bradyrhizobium strains from Kenya
