Lentil (Lens culinarisMedikus) is one of the most important cool season food legume crops grown in many countries. Seeds are typically rich in protein, fiber, prebiotic carbohydrates and minerals, such as iron and zinc. With changing climate and...
Relay intercropping of maize with fodder crops is a promising option for sustainable intensification
of dairy small-scale farms in the Cerrado of Brazil. Twenty-six intercropping trials were conducted
on farmers’ fields with the following...
To develop low-ODAP grass pea genotypes with high protein content, in vitro tissue culture techniques were used for inducing somaclonal variation through internode explants that was cultured on B5 medium containing 2 mg L−l α-naphthaleneacetic acid...
Plant growth-promoting rhizobia are known to improve crop performance by multiple mechanisms. However, the interaction between host plants and Rhizobium strains is highly influenced by growing conditions, e.g., heat, cold, drought, soil salinity...
Simple Summary: Bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP7) is one of the largest secretory signal conductive molecules and is in the TGF-beta superfamily. It plays an important role in the growth and development of hair follicles. We cloned the proximal...
Climate variability and associated droughts are major environmental factors limiting crop productivity worldwide. Identification and better understanding of factors influencing genotype x environment (GE) interaction in drought-prone environments...
Community-based breeding programs (CBBPs) for small ruminants have been suggested as alternatives to centralised, government-controlled breeding schemes which have been implemented in many developing countries. An innovative methodological framework...
