Development of maize single cross hybrids for tolerance to low phosphorus
(2015-08-21)
Low available phosphorus (P) is one of the major hindrances to maize (Zea mays L.) productivity in acid
soils. The objectives of this study were to: (1) develop P-efficient maize inbred lines, (2) develop single
cross ...
Aluminum tolerance mechanisms in Kenyan maize germplasm are independent from the citrate transporter ZmMATE1
(Scientific Reports, 2020)
Phylogenetic relationship among Kenyan sorghum germplasms based on aluminium tolerance
(2015-08-21)
Eighty nine (89) sorghum lines sourced from various parts of Kenya were used to determine
phylogenetic relationships based on 10 DNA fragments at AltSB loci with SbMATE, ORF9 and MITE
primers. Nine lines of varying ...
Physiological characterization of kenyan sorghum lines for tolerance to aluminium
(2015-08-21)
Eighty nine Kenyan sorghum lines were screened for tolerance to aluminium toxicity in nutrient
solution. Relative net root growth; root tip aluminium content and variation in organic acid
exudation were used to determine ...
