Plantains (Musa spp., AAB group) are an important food crop in the humid lowlands of sub-Saharan Africa. Understanding the relationships between growth characteristics and yield potential (t ha-1 yr-1) would be useful in developing an ideotype to guide breeding efforts for this crop. We investiga...
The genus Vigna comprises seven subgenera and sixteen sections. Cowpea, Vigna tingnicnlatti (L.) Walp.. is an important grain legume crop in sub-Saharan Africa and belongs to the subgenus Vigna. section Ctitiang. Morphologically, cowpea genotypes appear very variable. However, a high level of gen...
Bananas and plantains (Musa spp.) are the most important tropical fruit crops. They form an integral component of the farming systems in the humid agroecological zones of the tropics. A broad array of applied cell and molecular techniques are increasingly being used worldwide to facilitate and en...
Manihot esculenta Cyanogenesis, the ability to produce hydrogen cyanide (HCN), is common to over 2000 plant species. In cassava, two cyanogenic glucosides, linamarin and lotaustralin, are produced in the leaves and stored inside vacuoles. Linamarase, an enzyme capable of hydrolyzing the glucoside...
Knowledge of the genetic relationships and variability among cultivated germplasm is important for facilitating the transfer of useful genes and maximizing the use of available germplasm resources. In this study, random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers were used to assess genetic diversit...
Grain yield of maize (Zea mays L.) in the tropics are generally low and information on combining ability among tropical maize inbred lines has not been reported for West Africa. This study was conducted to estimate combining abilities of maize inbred lines developed for West Africa. Crosses obtai...
