Biochemical composition of pigeonpea genotypes in Kenya
(Australian Journal of Crop Science (AJCS), 2019)
Pigeonpea is an important crop in semi-arid tropics and sub-tropics. The improvement and utilization of this crop in East Africa can
enhance food and nutrition security. A study was carried out to examine variation in ...
Prospects of Fungus-Based Biopesticides for Management of Insect Vectors of Maize Lethal Necrosis Disease
(2019)
Maize, Zea mays L., production in Kenya is constrained by both biotic and abiotic factors.
For instance, maize lethal necrosis (MLN) was first reported in Bomet County in 2011 and
has since spread to other maize growing ...
Analysis of the population structure 2015 Puccinia graminis f. sp tritici (Pgt) in Kenya using simple sequence repeats markers
(International Journal of Agronomy and Agricultural Research (IJAAR), 2019)
N Wheat (Triticum astevium) production in Kenya has been severely affected by stem rust Ug99 and its related
race groups. The consequence of not controlling this disease is steep decline in the crop production thus ...
Assessment of the Ploidy Level Diversity by Chloroplast Counts in Stomatal Guard Cells of Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) Mutants
(Asian Journal of Research in Crop Science, 2019)
Aims: Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is the most important staple food in the world and plays an
important role in food and nutritional security. Induced mutation generates variation within potato
germplasm to widen the ...
