The largest extant RNA genomes are found in two diverse families of positive-strand RNA viruses, the animal Coronaviridae and the plant Closteroviridae. Comparative analysis of the viruses from the latter family reveals three levels of gene conservation. The most conserved gene module defines RNA...

Cowpea is the most important product in African dryland agriculture. Its protein-rich grains are the main product of the crop, which are commonly eaten in different forms by rural and urban peoples. African farmers growing cowpea in their fields often harvest low yields because many biotic and ab...

Background Large genome-wide association (GWA) studies of European ancestry individuals have identified multiple genetic variants influencing iron status. Studies on the generalizability of these associations to African ancestry populations have been limited. These studies are important given int...

Cassava production in the central, southern and eastern parts of Africa is under threat by cassava brown streak virus (CBSV). Yield losses of up to 100% occur in cases of severe infections of edible roots. Easy illegal movement of planting materials across African countries, and long-range moveme...

New types of phenotyping tools generate large amounts of data on many aspects of plant physiology and morphology with high spatial and temporal resolution. These new phenotyping data are potentially useful to improve understanding and prediction of complex traits, like yield, that are characteriz...

Technological advances allow us to tap into genetic resources to address food and nutritional security in the face of population growth, urbanization, climate change, and environmental degradation. It is vital, particularly for developing countries, to ensure that the policy framework regulating ...

A major constraint to the application of biotechnology to the improvement of the allotetraploid peanut, or groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.), has been the paucity of polymorphism among germplasm lines using biochemical (seed proteins, isozymes) and DNA markers (RFLPs and RAPDs). Six sequence-tagged...

In a study Bovine DNA was prepared from a Theileria parva-transformed lymphobastoid cell line derived from the PBM of an heterozygons Boran (Bos indicus) steer. It was observed that linkage between the bovine DR alpha and DR beta subregions on the basis that a 1-2 Mbp Sfi1 and a 0.6 Mbp not 1 fra...
