Journal articles Open Access Responding to the soybean rust epidemic in sub-Saharan Africa: a review Ekwamu Adipala · R. Kawuki · J. Lamo · P. Tukamuhabwa Soybean rust ( Phakopsora pachyrhizi Sydow), a major threat to soybean production, is a new pathogen on the African continent, where it is increasingly threatening soybean production. The fungus is highly variable, and this complicates mos… RUF-37891 2003 CC BY 4.0 17 Apr 2019
Theses & Dissertations Open Access Enhancing genetic resistance to soybean rust disease M. Maphosa Soybean (Glycine max L.) is increasingly playing an important nutritive role in the food and feed industry in most countries. However, the crop is currently threatened by soybean rust disease (Phakopsora pachyrhizi). The rapid spread of so… RUF-35859 2013 CC BY 4.0 29 Jan 2016
Working Document Series Open Access Developing a broad soybean germplasm base and durable resistance to soybean rust disease in Uganda R. Kawuki · P. Tukamuhabwa · G. Tusiime Soybean rust, Phakopsora pachyrhizi is a major threat to soybean production world-wide. In Uganda breeding for soybean rust resistance has taken priority over other objectives since the first disease rust outbreak in 1996. Three resistant … RUF-34535 2010 CC BY 4.0 25 Aug 2015
Working Document Series Open Access Enhancing genetic resistance to soybean rust disease R. Bandyopadhyay · M. Maphosa · C. Mukankusi · H. Talwana Soybean is an important crop worldwide with unrivalled protein quality and content. Sustenance of soybean productivity is, however, compromised by the devastating soybean rust disease caused by the fungus Phakopsora pachyrhizi. Some resist… RUF-34472 2010 CC BY 4.0 21 Aug 2015
Working Document Series Open Access Phakopsora Pachyrhizi Diversity and Rust Resistance in Soybean Genotypes in Uganda T. Obua · P. Tukamuhabwa · G. Tusiime The objectives of this study were twofold: (i) to validate use of SSR markers in assessing Phakopsora pachyrhizi diversity in Uganda and (ii) to assess elite soybean lines for resistance to rust in diverse locations in Uganda. A dendogram … RUF-32971 2012 CC BY 4.0 20 May 2014
Working Document Series Open Access Enhancing soybean rust resistance through gene pyramiding M. Maphosa · H. Talwana · P. Tukamuhabwa The threat posed by soybean rust (Phakopsora pachyrhizi) on soybean production is worsened by resistance breakdown associated with single gene resistance present in most cultivars. Few studies have, however, been undertaken to use mapped s… RUF-32490 2012 CC BY 4.0 16 May 2014
Working Document Series Open Access Combining Ability for Resistance to Soybean Rust in F2 and F3 Soybean Populations M. Maphosa · H. Talwana · P. Tukamuhabwa Combining ability for soybean rust resistance was estimated from a half diallel cross of eight soybean lines using disease severity and sporulation rates as indices for resistance. A consistent contribution of additive gene action was obse… RUF-32486 2012 CC BY 4.0 16 May 2014
