Guei, AMOkoth, Peter F.Tondoh, Jérôme E.[Maize growth and production as influenced by earthwormbased integrated soil fertility management in tropical agroecosystems]Maize growth and production as influenced by earthwormbased integrated soil fertility management in tropical agroecosystems

Traditionally, crop production in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) depends primarily on mining soil nutrients. Integrated Soil Fertility Management (ISFM) is an approach for intensifying agriculture in SSA that aims at maximizing the agronomic efficiency (AE) of applied nutrient inputs. ISFM contains the...


Vanlauwe, BernardKihara, JobChivenge, P.P.Pypers, PieterCoe, R.Six, Johan[Agronomic use efficiency of N fertilizer in maize-based systems in sub-Saharan Africa within the context of integrated soil fertility management]Agronomic use efficiency of N fertilizer in maize-based systems in sub-Saharan Africa within the context of integrated soil fertility management

Functional properties of normal and waxy starches from maize, rice, potato, and cassava as well as the modified waxy maize starch COLFLO 67 were compared. The main objective of this study is to position the recently discovered spontaneous mutation for amylose-free cassava starch in relation to th...


Sánchez, T.Dufour, D.L.Moreno, I.X.Ceballos, H.[Comparison of pasting and gel stabilities of waxy and normal starches from potato, maize, and rice with those of a novel waxy cassava starch under thermal, chemical, and mechanical stress]Comparison of pasting and gel stabilities of waxy and normal starches from potato, maize, and rice with those of a novel waxy cassava starch under thermal, chemical, and mechanical stress

Major challenges for combined use of organic and mineral nutrient sources in smallholder agriculture include variable type and quality of the resources, their limited availability, timing of their relative application and the proportions at which the two should be combined. Short-term nutrient su...


Mtambanengwe, F.Mapfumo, PaulVanlauwe, Bernard[Comparative short-term effects of different quality organic resources on maize productivity under two different environments in Zimbabwe]Comparative short-term effects of different quality organic resources on maize productivity under two different environments in Zimbabwe

The incidence of the black bean aphid, Aphis fabae check for this species in other resources scop. (Homoptera: Aphididae), and its colonization of common beans (phaseolus vulgaris L.) grown as sole crop and as intercrops with maize ( Zea mays check for this species in other resources L.) of var...


Ogenga-Latigo, MWBaliddawa, CWAmpofo, James Kwasi O.[Factors influencing the incidence of the black bean aphid, Aphis fabae scop., on common beans intercropped with maize]Factors influencing the incidence of the black bean aphid, Aphis fabae scop., on common beans intercropped with maize

Soil nutrient depletion as a result of continuous cultivation of soils without adequate addition of external inputs is a major challenge in the highlands of Kenya. An experiment was set up in Meru South District, Kenya in 2000 to investigate the effects of different soil-incorporated organic (man...


Mucheru-Muna, M.Mugendi, DNKung'u, J.B.Mugwe, JBationo, B. André[Effects of organic and mineral fertilizer inputs on maize yield and soil chemical properties in a maize cropping systems in Meru South District, Kenya]Effects of organic and mineral fertilizer inputs on maize yield and soil chemical properties in a maize cropping systems in Meru South District, Kenya

The combined application of organic resources (ORs) and mineral fertilizers is increasingly gaining recognition as a viable approach to address soil fertility decline in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). We conducted a meta-analysis to provide a comprehensive and quantitative synthesis of conditions unde...

Rusinamhodzi, LeonardWijk, Mark T. vanCorbeels, MarcRufino, Mariana C.Giller, Ken E.[Maize crop residue uses and trade-offs on smallholder crop-livestock farms in Zimbabwe: economic implications of intensification]Maize crop residue uses and trade-offs on smallholder crop-livestock farms in Zimbabwe: economic implications of intensification

Information on the inter- and intra-specific variability in the acquisition and utilization of phosphorus (P) by promiscuous soybean genotypes under low-P conditions can be helpful in the short-term management of soil P availability. Thirteen promiscuous soybean genotypes were evaluated in a low-...


Nwoke, O.C.Okogun, JASanginga, NteranyaDiels, J.Abaidoo, R.C.Osonubi, O.[Phosphate rock utilization by soybean genotypes on a low-P savanna soil and the status of soil P fractions after a subsequent maize crop]Phosphate rock utilization by soybean genotypes on a low-P savanna soil and the status of soil P fractions after a subsequent maize crop
