Replication Data for: Shoot and Root Traits Contribute to Drought Resistance in Recombinant Inbred Lines of MD 23-24 x SEA 5 of Common Bean
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/80919
Abstract
Traits related with drought resistance in recombinant inbred lines (RILs). A set of 121 bean genotypes (111 RILs, 2 parents, 8 checks) belonging to the Mesoamerican gene pool were evaluated under field conditions with two levels of water supply (irrigated and rainfed) over three seasons. To complement field studies, a greenhouse study was conducted…

30-seconds (1 Km2) monthly, seasonal and annual gridded Historical Climate Surfaces for Honduras.
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/97534
Abstract
The gridded climate surfaces for Honduras (30-year average) were developed from weather station observations from different official sources (local, national and regional institutions) for the period 1981 to 2010 (latest period defined by WMO to calculate the climatological standard normal), at 30-seconds (1 Km2) spatial resolution, for monthly precipitation (prec), monthly minimum temperature…

Assessing access and adoption of improved bean varieties among the bean growing households in Northern and Southern provinces of Zambia
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/96889
Abstract
The data applies to ex-post analysis of improved bean variety adoption. The two provinces of Northern and Muchinga provinces in Zambia constitute the biggest area share planted to bean in the country. A total of 402 bean growing households were selected from 67 villages across seven districts for the survey using a two-stage cluster sample selection method…

Estudio cualitativo sobre roles de género en la producción de arroz en Ecuador
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/79404
Abstract
El arroz es un cultivo importante para la economía y el consumo nacional de Ecuador. Usualmente, se considera que este cultivo es de actividades masculinas y que las mujeres no cumplen roles en su producción. Teniendo en cuenta la poca información sobre género y arroz en este país, se ejecutó un análisis cualitativo de carácter exploratorio con el objetivo de describir los roles de las mujeres, en comparación al…

Replication Data for: Evidence for genotypic differences among elite lines of common bean in the ability to remobilize photosynthate to increase yield under drought
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/78465
Abstract
Traits and genotypes related with resistance to intermittent and terminal drought stress. Three common bean elite lines (NCB 226, SEN 56, SER 125) were identified with superior levels of adaptation to both intermittent and terminal drought stress conditions. The greater performance of these lines under drought stress was…

Abstract
The International Rice Testing Program (IRTP) for Latin America was sponsored by the CIAT and IRRI, with funds from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). The testing program was formalized in 1976 with the object of evaluating at ClAT nurseries introduced from IRRI and the promising material developed by national programs in Latin America (during 1980 to 1993). From among this germplasm, the material considered most appropriate…

https://hdl.handle.net/10568/93212
Abstract
During the months of April and May 2014, vegetation structure was measured on the 150 selected plots. The altitude and plot boundary coordinates were recorded using Garmin eTrex GPS. Plot size was calculated based on plot boundary coordinates in R Statistics (R Core Team, 2014) using the sp package (Pebesma and Bivand 2005). The number of coffee…

Abstract
CIAT systematically evaluates all germplasm accessions in diverse sites in Colombia, to obtain a broad characterization of adaptation to different soils and climates, resistance to many pests and diseases, and quality traits. The information is used primarily to select parents which can potentially contribute characters requested by national programs. Based on these evaluations, some generalized conclusions can be…

Abstract
This household survey was conducted among 88 respondents by CIAT in three counties of western Kenya (Bungoma, Kakamega, and Siaya) in 2016. The main aim of the project was to conduct a cost benefit analysis of eight climate-smart soil (CSS) practices, as a step toward understanding whether they were beneficial or not both from a private and social point of view. This knowledge could then be…
