1. Genetic analysis of resistance to Cercospora Arachidicola Hori in groundnut (ARACHIS HYPOGAEA L.) using simple sequence repeat markers MARKERS

Tembo, Evans
2017·University of Zambia

Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is an important global oilseed crop and a major source of protein and vitamins in many rural areas of Africa. In Zambia, the production of groundnut is limited by several factors, among which Early Leaf Spot (ELS) caused by Cercospora arachidicola Hori, is a major...

3. The efficacy of multiple isolate resistance evaluation for stenocarpella maydis in breeding for ear rot resistance in tropical maize(Zea mays L.)

Simpasa, Kelvin
2017·University of Zambia

Maize ear rots caused by Stenocarpella maydis are among the most important impediments to increased maize production in Zambia. They cause reduction in yield and quality of the maize. The mycotoxins produced by the pathogen have health implications on livestock and humans. Breeding for resistance...
