Kissel, E.Asten, Piet J.A. vanSwennen, R.L.Lorenzen, J.H.Carpentier, S.C.[Transpiration efficiency versus growth: Exploring the banana biodiversity for drought tolerance]Transpiration efficiency versus growth: Exploring the banana biodiversity for drought tolerance

Maize (Zea mays) is an important crop for food, feed, and agroindustrial raw material produced primarily in the savannah but also in other agroecologies of West and Central Africa (WCA). Maize production in the savannah has been constrained by cultivation of inappropriate varieties, biotic and ab...

The majority of farmers in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) depend on maize (Zea mays L.), which is mostly grown in drought-prone areas. Understanding the inheritance of drought tolerance would help in developing drought-tolerant maize hybrids that would help increase maize production under erratic rainf...

Mexico is the primary center of origin and diversity for maize (Zea mays L.). Farmers grow the crop largely under rain-fed conditions. Mexico is at considerable risk from climate change because of predicted rising temperatures, declining rainfall, and an increase in extreme weather events. Small-...

Rolando, J.L.Ramírez, D.Yactayo, W.Monneveux, P.Quiróz, R.[Leaf greenness as a drought tolerance related trait in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.).]Leaf greenness as a drought tolerance related trait in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.).

Rice productivity and sustainability are continually threatened by abiotic stresses, particularly in the era of global climate change. In severe cases, 100% yield loss can be experienced due solely to abiotic stresses, such as drought. The situation may become worse due to climate change that may...

Many Countries could experience unprecedented heat stress because of global climate change (Battisti and Naylor,2009). Heat sensitivity in common bean is a major limiting factor that can reduce yield, quality, and lead to restricted geographic adaptation (Beebeetal.,2011). Interspecific lines dev...

Pan-Africa Bean Research Alliance[Released varieties with different market and resilient traits in 2017]Released varieties with different market and resilient traits in 2017

Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) has relatively higher drought tolerance than other legume crops. It is widely grown in semi-arid regions, particularly in West Africa. One objective of the present study was to determine the effects of soil moisture stress on the length, dry matter and distribution of t...
