Innovation Platforms in agricultural research for development: Ex-ante Appraisal of the Purposes and Conditions Under Which Innovation Platforms can Contribute to Agricultural Deve... por Schut, Marc, Kamanda, Josey, Gramzow, Andreas, Dubois, Thomas, Stoian, Dietmar, Andersson, Jens A., Dror, Iddo, Sartas, Murat, Mur, Remco, Kassam, Shinan, Brouwer, Herman, Devaux, André, Velasco, C., Flor, Rica J., Gummert, Martin, Buizer, Djuna, Mcdougall, Cynthia, Davis, Kristin E., Homann-Kee Tui, Sabine, Lundy, Mark M.

“…This study makes clear that not all constraints will require innovation platforms and, if there is a simpler and cheaper alternative, that should be considered first. Based on the review of critical design principles and plausible outcomes of innovation platforms, this study provides a decision support tool for research, development and funding agencies that can enhance more critical thinking about the purposes and conditions under which innovation platforms can contribute to achieving agricultural development outcomes.…”

Environmental response of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi under soybean cultivation at a regional scale por Faggioli, Valeria Soledad, Covacevich, Fernanda, Grilli, Gabriel, Lorenzon, Claudio Antonio, Aimetta, Maria Bethania, Sagadin, Monica Beatriz, Langarica-Fuentes, Adrián, Cabello, Marta Noemí

“…We conducted a survey of 123 soybean fields located across a 75,000-km2 area of Argentina to explore AMF community composition and to quantify the impact of soil, climate, and geographical distance on these key soil organisms. First, based upon morphological identification of spores, we compiled a list of the AMF species found in the studied area and identified Acaulospora scrobiculata and Glomus fuegianum as the most frequent species. …”

Willingness to pay for quality traits and implications for sweetpotato variety breeding: case of Mozambique por Mulwa, C.K., Tomo, A., Mudema, J., Makunde, G.S., Andrade, M.I., Ssali, R.T., Abdul, N., Campos, Hugo

“…To achieve this, an exploratory sequential design in a predominantly quantitative mixed-method design was adopted for the study. First, based on the insights from a gender disaggregated qualitative assessment among sweetpotato growers and consumers and in consultation with breeding experts from Mozambique, the most preferred sweetpotato variety traits in the regions of study were established. …”
