Microstructure of nuñas: Andean popping beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/83243
Abstract
Nuñas, popping beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), burst and expand when heated rapidly. Differences in seed microstructure between popping and conventional (non-popping) bean genotypes conceivably contribute to popping in ñuñas. However, the microstructural characteristics which contribute to the popping attribute and sites of expansion have not been…

Evolution and domestication of lima bean in Mexico : Evidence from ribosomal DNA
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/42837
Abstract
Phaseolus lunatus L., Lima bean, has been domesticated at least twice in the Americas, once in the Andean region and at another time in Mesoamerica; however, the domestication history of this crop in the latter region remains unclear. In this study, a phylogeographic analysis of DNA polymorphisms in the internal transcribed spacer (ITS)…

Senna siamea trees recycle Ca from a Ca-rich subsoil and increase the topsoil pH in agroforestry systems in the West African derived savanna zone
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/44087
Abstract
The functioning of trees as a safety-net for capturing nutrients leached beyond the reach of crop roots was evaluated by investigating changes in exchangeable cations (Ca, Mg, and K) and pH in a wide range of medium to long term alley cropping trials in the derived savanna of West Africa, compared to no-tree control plots. Topsoil Ca content,…

Participatory evaluation of integrated pest and soil fertility management options using ordered categorical data analysis
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/43924
Abstract
Maize is becoming the major food crop around Lake Victoria. Major constraints to its production are Striga, stem borer, and declining soil fertility. Innovative integrated technologies have been developed: the push pull system (intercropping with Desmodium and surrounded by Napier grass), soybean and Crotalaria rotations, and imidazolinone-resistant (IR) maize seed. In…

Abstract
Cassava, bean, and maize leaves were fed with (14)CO2 in light; the primary products of photosynthesis were identified 5 and 10 s after assimilation. In cassava, approx. 40-60 percent were incorporated in C4 acids with 30-50 percent in phosphoglyceric acid, which indicates that cassava possesses the C4…
