Phosphorus in soils of riparian and non-riparian wetland and buffer strips in the Waikato area, New Zealand
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/43947
Abstract
This paper examines the potential for phosphorus (P) release from intensively grazed pasture to waterways. In particular it describes the P release processes occurring in riparian buffer strips. Soil samples at three depths (0 2.5, 2.5 7.5, and 7.5 15 cm) were collected from riparian buffer strips, including…

Abstract
The anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum lindemuthianum is one of the most significant diseases in beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and can produce yield losses up to 95%. In this study, a breeding program utilizing molecular marker assisted selection (MAS) was initiated. In order to obtain commercial Colombian climbing beans resistant…

Abstract
Nitrogen (N) deficiency is a major constraint to the productivity of the African smallholder farming systems. Grain, green manure and forage legumes have the potential to improve the soil N fertility of smallholder farming systems through biological N2-fixation. The N2-fixation of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris),…

Abstract
Fourteen microsatellites containing GA-repeats were isolated and characterized in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz, Euphorbiaceae). Microsatellite heterozygosity (h) was estimated in 48 accessions using (32P)-end-labeled primers and in more than 500 accessions using fluorescence-based genotyping. Heterozygosity values ranged…
