An energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence method for analysing Fe and Zn in common bean, maize and cowpea biofortification programs
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/83153
Abstract
Background and aims
Biofortification breeding programs have the need for rapid and accurate screening methods to identify nutrient dense genotypes. This study explores the use of energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) for the rapid screening of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) concentration in…

Root traits and their potential links to plant ideotypes to improve drought resistance in common bean
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/83332
Abstract
Drought stress limits growth and yield of crops, particularly under smallholder production systems with minimal use of inputs and edaphic limitations such as nitrogen (N) deficiency. The development of genotypes adapted to these conditions through genetic improvement is an important strategy to address this limitation…

Household Determinants of the Adoption of Improved Cassava Varieties using DNA Fingerprinting to Identify Varieties in Farmer Fields: A Case Study in Colombia
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/89044
Abstract
We examine factors affecting the adoption of improved cassava varieties of 217 households in the Cauca Department in southwest Colombia. Using DNA fingerprinting through Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs), we identified different cultivars in farmers fields.…

Assessing post-conflict challenges and opportunities of the animal-agriculture system in the Alpine region of Uvira district in Sud-Kivu Province, D. R. Congo
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/51382
Abstract
The Alpine region of Uvira District in South-Kivu Province faces low agricultural productivity challenges largely due to human population pressure on the natural resource base. During the dry season, conflicts between crop farmers and livestock breeders are…
