Molecular-based characterization of open-pollinated varieties (OPVs) in maize is useful to define their unique profiles. A total of 58 SSR markers selected from a panel of 70 were used for genotyping three samples of 30, 50 and 100 plant bulks for each of 32 OPVs. The SSR markers detected a total...

Autor: Manda, J. Gardebroek, C. Kuntashula, E. Alene, A.

This study investigates the impact of improved maize varieties on household food security in eastern Zambia using household survey data from a sample of over 800 rural households. Since treatment effect estimates are often prone to misspecification in either the treatment or outcome equation, we ...

Aflatoxin-producing Aspergillus spp. produce carcinogenic metabolites that contaminate maize. Maize kernel absorbance patterns of near infrared (NIR) wavelengths (800–2600 nm) were used to non-invasively identify kernels of milk-, dough- and dent-stage maturities with four doses of Aspergillus sp...

Marker-assisted recurrent selection (MARS) is a breeding method used to accumulate favorable alleles that for example confer tolerance to drought in inbred lines from several genomic regions within a single population. A bi-parental cross formed from two parents that combine resistance to Striga ...

The objective of marker assisted recurrent selection (MARS) is to increase the frequency of favorable marker alleles in a population before inbred line extraction. This approach was used to improve drought tolerance and grain yield (GY) in a biparental cross of two elite drought tolerant lines. T...

Striga hermonthica and drought are the major stresses limiting maize yields in sub-Saharan Africa. The search for diverse maize lines’ tolerance to drought and resistance to S. hermonthica (DTSTHR) is very crucial for yield improvement in areas affected by the two stresses. Understanding the gene...

Greenhouse and field studies were conducted to determine the effect of earthworm casts on the production of maize and cowpea. In pot experiments with mixtures of soil and casts, shoot and root dry matter (OM) of maize and cowpea increased with increasing proportion of casts. Shoot OM of cowpea an...
