Knowledge of the mode of inheritance of a trait can be a powerful decision-making tool in a breeding program, as
it helps predicting selection gain, defining breeding strategy and choosing parental lines. This study aimed at
estimating genetic parameters to infer the mode of inheritance of promis...

Mode of inheritance of promiscuous nodulation and combining abilities in soybean genotypes
Storage root dry matter content (RDM) is central to the improvement of consumer and industrial attributes of root crops. Yam bean (Pachyrhizus species) is a legume root crop newly introduced in Uganda, but its adoption may be constrained by low RDM. The objective of this study was to investigate ...
The amount of genotypic and phenotypic variability that exists in a species is
important for selection and initiating breeding programs. Yam bean is grown locally in
tropical countries of the Americas and Asia for their tasty storage roots, which usually
have low dry matter content. The crop was ...
Germplasm of common beans from the Mesoamerican gene pool races: Durango, Jalisco, Mesoamerica and Guatemala have highest genetic variation for the crop's improvement. The objective was to assign 50 common bean germplasm in Uganda into its gene pool races based on analyses of population structure...

Genetic variation, Heritability estimates and GXE effects on yield traits of Mesoamerican common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L) germplasm in Uganda
Multiple co-infections by different pathogens on common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) affect its productivity and cause complete crop loss in susceptible varieties. Therefore, gene pyramiding using marker assisted selection (MAS) and backcrossing, provide alternative cost-effective control measu...
