Cassava breeding: current status, bottlenecks and the potential of biotechnology tools
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/43246
Abstract
Cassava is an important energy source in the diets of millions of people in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. It is a key subsistence crop, and its industrial uses are steadily growing. In spite of its economic and social relevance, relatively little investment has been made for research on cassava. However, conventional breeding resulted in more stable production through enhanced tolerance…

https://hdl.handle.net/10568/42717
Abstract
The decomposition and nutrient release of 12 plant materials were assessed in a 20-week litterbag field study in hillsides from Cauca, Colombia. Leaves of Tithonia diversifolia (TTH) and Indigofera constricta (IND) decomposed quickly (k=0.035±0.002 d?1), while those of Cratylia argentea (CRA) and the stems evaluated decomposed…

Abstract
Based on information obtained on the production of different varieties of beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) in single-row plots with no replicates, the effect of "clear spaces without plants" on production/plant was analyzed by means of coefficients of regression. Results clearly indicate that as the plot has more clear spaces…

Abstract
Lack of synchronization between N released from prunings applied to the soil as green manures and crop uptake as well as optimization of protein digestibility for ruminants, remain major research objectives for the…

Abstract
The world s poorest and most vulnerable farmers on the whole have not benefited from international agricultural research and development. Past efforts have tried to increase the production of countries in more favourable environments; farmers with relatively higher potential for improvement benefited most from these advances. Current and future crop improvement…

Rethinking the farmer's role in plant breeding : local bean experts and on-station selection in Rwanda
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/44055
Abstract
Varietal selection is particularly difficult for very heterogeneous environments where farmers have a range of preferences. To address these issues in Rwanda, local bean experts, generally women, are invited to the research station to assess cultivars and to select those they prefer for their plots. Farmers use…
