Replication Data for: Estimation of phenotypic variability in symbiotic nitrogen fixation ability of common bean under drought stress using 15N natural abundance in grain
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/78462
Abstract
A new methodology to estimate phenotypic differences in SNF ability. We used 15N natural abundance method to compare SNF ability estimated from shoot tissue sampled at mid-pod filling growth stage vs. grain tissue sampled at harvest. We suggest that the method of estimating Ndfa using grain tissue (Ndfa-G) could be applied…

Replication Data for: A comparison study of five different methods to measure carotenoids in biofortified yellow cassava (Manihot esculenta)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/98454
Abstract
The most commonly used method for measuring carotenoid concentration is high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Nevertheless, easier, quicker, and less costly proxy methods exist. We aimed to determine the diagnostic performance of several proxy methods: the spectrophotometer, iCheck Carotene, and near-infrared spectroscopy using both a desktop…

Abstract
In order to characterize the historical climate for the Western Honduras region, it was developed monthly surfaces by years through spatial interpolation and available records of weather stations. The interpolated surfaces were generated at 1-km of spatial resolution (30 arc-seconds) for monthly precipitation (1981-2015), and minimum and maximum temperature (1990-2014). It was followed the method described by…
