Bean seed delivery for small farmers in sub-Saharan Africa: the power of partnerships
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/43212
Abstract
New bean varieties translate into increased on-farm yields only if farmers obtain access to desired seed. Conventional models of legume seed delivery in Africa, centralized with the National Agricultural Research Systems (NARS), prove to be slow and of limited reach. This article describes a novel strategy for seed outreach, the Wider…

Isolation and sequence analysis of DREB2A homologues in three cereal and two legume species
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/43621
Abstract
The transcription factor, DREB2A, is one of the promising candidate genes involved in dehydration
tolerance in crop plants. In order to isolate DREB2A homologues across cereals (rice, barley and sorghum)
and legumes (common bean and chickpea), specific or degenerate primers were used. Gene/phylogenetic
trees were constructed using a non-redundant set of 19 DREB1A and 27 DREB2A amino acid sequences…
