https://hdl.handle.net/10568/42892
Abstract
We determined DNA fingerprints and pathotypes on international differentials for 151 isolates of the rice blast fungus Pyricularia grisea that were collected from 15 rice cultivars at a blast disease breeding nursery in Santa Rosa, Colombia. The pathogen population expressed an extraordinarily high number (39) of pathotypes. DNA fingerprinting…

Abstract
Micronutrient malnutrition, the so-called hidden hunger, affects more than one-half of the world's population, especially women and preschool children in developing countries. Despite past progress in controlling micronutrient decencies through supplementation and food fortification, new approaches are needed to expand the reach of food-based interventions. Biofortification, a new approach that relies on conventional plant breeding and…

Resistance to diseases and pests of tropical pasture plants
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/44043
Abstract
In recent years, increasing numbers of pathogens and pests have been reported from major centres of tropical pasture research. Damage is often severe and controls are needed. Diseases and pests may be controlled chemically, biologically, culturally and genetically. In pasture plants genetical resistance is the most practical and economical control method and,…

Abstract
The effects produced by water stress and three relative humidity (R.H) levels (3q-53%, 5461% & 62-82%) were measured on photosynthesis, stomatal conductance and transpiration rate. Stomatal opening and density were measured in stressed and non stressed plants of plantain (Dominico-Harton) and orange (variety Valencia).…

Abstract
A wide variety of training activites has been carried out related to farming systems research (FSR). The majority have had one or more of the following objectives: to introduce the farming systems perspective, to teach new research methods, and to promote the institutionalization of FSR. Many of these objectives are important, but FSR training is not usefully…
