Fast-growing pioneer trees as a rapid and cost-effective strategy for bracken elimination in the Neotropics
Bioversity International (Bioversity International)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/35525
Abstract
Large areas of agricultural land around the world are degraded as a consequence of dominance by bracken fern (Pteridium spp.). Tropical production systems based on shifting cultivation and cattle breeding are particularly vulnerable to invasion of this species. In spite of this, effective methods for tropical…

Soil carbon dioxide and methane fluxes from forests and other land use types in an African tropical montane region
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/100221
Abstract
In the last 40 years, large areas of the Mau forest, the largest contiguous tropical montane forest in East Africa, have been cleared for agriculture. To date, there are no empirical data on how this land use change affects carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes from soil respiration and soil methane (CH4) fluxes.…

Biofortification of grain legumes
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/98306
Abstract
Micronutrient malnutrition (MNM) is one of the world’s major health threats. Fe and Zn deficiencies affect more than a third of the world’s population, most severely women and children. Biofortified legume crops are being developed with higher levels of bioavailable Fe and Zn to alleviate MNM and improve the nutritional status of affected populations. In this chapter, we review the…

A Fosmid pool-based next generation sequencing approach to haplotype-resolve whole genomes
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/79937
Abstract
Haplotype resolution of human genomes is essential to describe and interpret genetic variation and its impact on biology and disease. Our approach to haplotyping relies on converting genomic DNA into a fosmid library, which represents the entire diploid genome as a collection of haploid DNA clones of ~40 kb in size. These can be…
