Working Document Series Open Access Response of sorghum genotypes to anthracnose and Turcicum leaf blight M. A. Abdelbagi · Nafisa Elmahi Ahmed · Beshir Mayada M. · P. Okori +1 more The absence of cultivars with dual disease levels of resistance justifies the search for genotypes with diseases resistance genes in sorghum breeding programs. In this study, four field and two greenhouse experiments were carried out in so… RUF-37473 2016 CC BY 4.0 10 Apr 2018
Journal articles Open Access Simple sequence repeat markers associated with anthracnose and Turcicum leaf blight resistance in sorghum N.E. Ahmed · A.M. Ali · M.M. Beshir · P. Okori +1 more Deployment of host resistance remains the most cost effective strategy for management of foliar and grain diseases, especially for resource constrained farmers. There is paucity of information on dual resistance in sorghum to both diseases… RUF-35921 2016 CC BY 4.0 31 Mar 2016
Theses & Dissertations Open Access Inheritance of phosphorus use efficiency and resistance to anthracnose in selected sorghum genotypes grown in the acid soils of Western Kenya A. Nyambok The acid soils of western Kenya where most of the sorghum is grown have very low available phosphorus, at 2-5mg P/kg soil compared to the recommended levels of 10-15mg P/ kg soil required for optimal crop productivity. In these soils, sorg… RUF-35837 2014 CC BY 4.0 28 Jan 2016
Theses & Dissertations Open Access Introgression of the anthracnose resistance genes into selected commercial bean varieties using molecular markers Pheonah. Nabukalu The inheritance of anthracnose resistance of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) differential cultivar G 2333 to Colletotrichum lindemuthianum race 3 was studied in crosses of G2333 with the susceptible cultivars K132, K20D and GLP 585… RUF-35486 2008 CC BY 4.0 28 Sep 2015
Working Document Series Open Access Pod quality, pod yield and disease resistance of new bush snap bean lines in Kenya J. J. Cheptoo · P. M. Kimani · R.D. Narla This study was conducted at Mwea and Embu where twenty F6.7 lines selected from 31 bulk populations were evaluated for reaction to diseases, pod quality and pod yield in onfarm trials during the 2013 long rain and short rain seasons.

Journal articles Open Access Hot Pepper Reaction to Field Diseases V. Nsabiyera · M. Ochwo-Ssemakula · P. Sseruwagi Diseases are major constraints to hot pepper (Capsicum annum L.) production in sub-Saharan Africa. The search for cultivars resistant to the major diseases of hot pepper has been limited. This study was conducted in Uganda to evaluate exot… RUF-31444 2012 CC BY 4.0 29 Sep 2013
