Polanía, José A.Rao, Idupulapati M.Mejia, SaraBeebe, Stephen E.Cajiao, César[Características morfo-fisiológicas de frijol común (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) relacionadas con la adaptación a sequía = Morpho-physiological characteristics of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) related to drought adaptation]Características morfo-fisiológicas de frijol común (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) relacionadas con la adaptación a sequía = Morpho-physiological characteristics of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) related to drought adaptation

Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is a vital source of nutrients worldwide. It is one of the most consumed grain legume in Botswana. Fourteen Andean common bean genotypes were evaluated in four environments (two seasons and two diverse agro-ecologies) to determine the effect of genotype and env...


Molosiwa, Odireleng O.Pharudi, JosephSeketeme, SeipatiMashiqa, PatrickChirwa, Rowland[Assessing yield stability and adaptability of Andean common bean genotypes in the semi-arid environment of Botswana]Assessing yield stability and adaptability of Andean common bean genotypes in the semi-arid environment of Botswana

Crop production in sub-Saharan Africa has numerous biotic and abiotic constraints, including nutrient deficiencies. Information on crop response to macronutrients is relatively abundant compared with secondary and micronutrients (SMN). Data from 1339 trial replicates of 280 field trials conducted...


Wortmann, Charles S.Kaizzi, K.C.Maman, N.Cyamweshi, A.Dicko, M.Garba, M.Milner, M.Senkoro, C.Tarfa, B.Tettah, F.Kibunja, C.Muntholi, M.Nalivata, P.Nkonde, D.Nabahungu, L.Ouattara, K.Serme, I.[Diagnosis of crop secondary and micro-nutrient deficiencies in sub-Saharan Africa]Diagnosis of crop secondary and micro-nutrient deficiencies in sub-Saharan Africa

Maize production is constrained by Striga hermonthica in Mali leading to high yield losses. Breeding resistant hybrid maize is a promising alternative for increasing farmers’ income. The objective of this study was to evaluate the response of test crosses to Striga hermonthica and identify high y...


Sangaré, S.Menkir, A.Ofori, K.Gracen, V.[Combining ability for grain yield, agronomic traits and striga hermonthica resistance of yellow endosperm maize]Combining ability for grain yield, agronomic traits and striga hermonthica resistance of yellow endosperm maize

Chloroplast DNA (cp) and nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) variation was investigated in 45 accessions of cultivated and wild Manihot species. Ten independent mutations, 8 point mutations and 2 length mutations were identified, using eight restriction enzymes and 12 heterologous cpDNA probes from mung...

Secondary triploids were produced by crossing primary tetraploids with selected diploid partners and the parthenocarpic banana (Galeo). Comparisons between secondary tetraploids and secondary triploids showed that the secondary tetraploids generally had lower yields than secondary triploids. The ...

Striga hermonthica is an important cause of yield loss in sorghum in the semi‐arid zone of Africa. Two trials were conducted in northern Cameroon to evaluate the effect of herbicides for two cropping seasons on densities of emerged Striga in treatment years and on densities of Striga seed and pla...


Carsky, R.Singh, L.Ndikawa, R.[Effect of herbicide and handweeding on current and subsequent season Striga hermonthica density on sorghum]Effect of herbicide and handweeding on current and subsequent season Striga hermonthica density on sorghum

Two projects on alley cropping research and development have been implemented in the Forest zone of Cameroon (FZC) since 1988. Their goal was to identify the main agricultural constraints in the FZC and to introduce alley cropping in the farming systems to improve soil fertility and crop yields. ...
