Although numerous studies of diversity have been conducted in cassava, there is no comprehensive assessment of global genetic diversity. Here we draw on previous studies and breeders’ knowledge to select diversity sets from the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) and the Intern...

Introgression of alleles from wild relatives has often been adaptive in plant breeding. However, the significance of historical hybridization events in modern breeding is often not clear. Cassava (Manihot esculenta) is among the most important staple foods in the world, sustaining hundreds of mil...

Banana (Musa spp.) is the most important food crop in Uganda as indicated by consumption rate, annual production (9.5 M t ha-1) and agricultural land committed to the crop. This level of productivity (6.3 t ha-1 yr-1) is extremely low when compared to the yields obtained on station and well-manag...

A cloned Theileria parva telomeric DNA sequence, designated pTpUtel, was used to characterize T. parva stocks and clones by hybridization to EcoRI-digested DNA. Eight of the nine T. parva stocks tested were discriminated by the telomeric restriction-fragment-length polymorphisms (RFLOs). Two isol...

A survey of pastoralist and agropastoralist households in south-east Kenya was conducted to determine their production objectives and management strategies in order to optimize and extend a breeding programme for indigenous small East African Shorthorn Zebu cattle. The reasons for keeping cattle ...

A report of the first workshop on the genetic map of bovine chromosome 1 (BTA1) is presented. Five laboratories contributed 31 962 informative meioses from 70 loci. Thirty-two loci which had been typed by at least two laboratories were used to construct a framework genetic map with a likelihood r...

Genetic diversity studies that utilize phenotypic and genetic information are informative when formulating breeding and conservation plans. The present study utilizes sequences of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) D-loop region of 232 village chickens from Southern and Northern Nigeria to determine the o...
