Web Application for Spatial Modelling of Field Trials
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/103767
Abstract
In plant improvement experimental designs are used to decompose the total phenotypic variance observed in field experiments into at least two components: A genetic and a non-genetic component that is attributable to the spatial variation or environment. Recently, new methodologies for the modelling of spatial trends have been published using the arrangement of the…

AFLP Analysis of Gene Pools for a Wild Bean Core Collection
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/103995
Abstract
Studies of diversity permit conclusions about the genetic structure of species. Systematically developed core collections are a particularly good tool for such purposes. The objective of this study was to evaluate the genetic structure between and within gene pools of a core collection of wild Phaseolus vulgaris L. using the technique of amplified restriction…

Gender participation and decision making in crop management in great lakes region of Central Africa
International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA)
Abstract
In Rwanda, Burundi, and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), increased crop productivity is fundamental to accelerating economic growth and improving the well-being of rural households, especially women and children, who are normally resource constrained. This article examines the degree to which women participate in farm management and decision making for crop…

Tracking crop varieties using genotyping-by-sequencing markers: a case study using cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz)
International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA)
Abstract
Accurate identification of crop cultivars is crucial in assessing the impact of crop improvement research outputs. Two commonly used identification approaches, elicitation of variety names from farmer interviews and morphological plant descriptors, have inherent uncertainty levels. Genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) was used in a case study as an alternative…

A global alliance declaring war on cassava viruses in Africa
International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA)
Abstract
Cassava, originally from South America, is the fourth most important source of calories in the developing world after the cereal crops wheat, maize, and rice. Worldwide, it feeds an estimated 700 million people directly or indirectly. Cassava production has increased steadily for the last 50 years, with 242 MT harvested in 2012. The increase is likely to continue as farmers in more than 105 countries come to…

Cowpea Cultivar Mixtures for Stable and Optimal Leaf and Seed Yields in a Maize Intercropping System
International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA)
Abstract
Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) is an important crop in many African countries, though its use as a leafy vegetable has not received adequate research attention. Leaf and grain yields are low and unstable, especially in highly variable climates in marginal areas. A study was conducted to evaluate the impact of cowpea cultivar mixtures on leaf and seed yield and…

Sustainable intensification: What is its role in climate smart agriculture?
International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA)
Abstract
The ?sustainable intensification? (SI) approach and ?climate-smart agriculture? (CSA) are highly complementary. SI is an essential means of adapting to climate change, also resulting in lower emissions per unit of output. With its emphasis on improving risk management, information flows and local institutions to support adaptive capacity, CSA provides the foundations for incentivizing and…
