Climate change adaptation through planted forages in Southern Highlands, Tanzania
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/106079
Abstract
Smallholder farmers (SF) are the biggest food producers in Tanzania (TZ), where hetero- geneous mixed crop-livestock farming systems dominate agriculture (Fig 1). Feed scarcity and quality are major issues facing smallholder dairy farmers in Tanzania.
Climate projections for Tanzania indicate increased length of dry seasons and severity…

Enteric methane emissions of zebu steers fed with tropical forages of contrasting nutritional value
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/103643
Abstract
Methane (CH4) emissions from livestock contribute significantly to climate change and diet plays a fundamental role in the emissions generated. Research in animal nutrition should aim at identifying ways to increase production efficiency with the least possible environmental impact and manipulation of diet quality…

Abstract
El suelo es un importante reservorio de carbono, lo captura a través de los aportes de materia orgánica (proveniente de las plantas y de los microorganismos) y almacena hasta el 70% del Carbono Orgánico (COS) del planeta, lo que contribuye significativamente a mitigar el calentamiento global y el cambio climático. Pero las…

Abstract
MapDisto is a program for mapping genetic markers in experimental segregating populations like backcross, F2, doubled haploids, single-seed descent and highly recombinant lines.
One of its specificities is to propose recombination fraction estimates in case of segregation distortion.
MapDisto has many features such as drawing genetic maps, computing…

Soil structural degradation and nutrient limitations across land use categories and climatic zones in Southern Africa
World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF)
Abstract
Although soil degradation is a major threat to food security and carbon sequestration, our knowledge of the spatial extent of the problem and its drivers is very limited in Southern Africa. Therefore, this study aimed to quantify the risk of soil structural degradation and determine the variation in soil stoichiometry and nutrient limitations with land use categories (LUCs)…

Abstract
Common bean breeding in the tropics has benefited from the use of marker assisted selection to accelerate the breeding cycle. It uses individual markers previously identified to be significantly associated with targeted QTLs. However, some limitations arise when identifying and quantifying a large number of minor effect…
