The growth of 9 grain legumes under irrigated conditions was analyzed at CIAT to evaluate bean efficiency in grain production. The representative genotypes of each sp. were selected from preliminary var. evaluations. The most efficient spp. in yield production/day were soybeans, cowpeas and beans...

'NASPOT 12 O' and 'NASPOT 13 O' sweetpotato.
Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas L. (Lam)) is a nutritious food security crop for most tropical households, but its utilisation is very low in Ghana compared to the other root and tuber crops due to lack of end-user-preferred cultivars. Knowledge on the genetic control of important traits such as dry...

Vitamin A deficiency (VAD) is a preventable tragedy that affects millions of people, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. A large proportion of these people rely on diets based on cassava as a source of calories. During the last two decades, significant efforts have been made to identify sources o...

Cassava is predominantly an upland crop that is also cultivated in inland valley swamps (IVS). Identifying physiological traits that can withstand excess moisture stress can aid in the selection and use of stable cassava cultivars in IVS. Three cassava cultivars were evaluated for growth and yiel...
