Effects of management practices on legume productivity in smallholder farming systems in sub-Saharan Africa por Muoni, Tarirai, Jonsson, M., Duncan, Alan J., Watson, Christine A., Bergkvist, Goran, Barnes, Andrew P., Öborn, Ingrid

“…A meta‐analysis based on 128 publications was conducted to quantify the effects of intercropping, inoculation with rhizobia, minimum tillage and phosphorus application on legume grain and biomass yield and the amount of biological nitrogen fixation in a range of SSA contexts. To further explain the heterogeneity in the results, legume species, type of inoculant, P‐application rate, altitude, rainfall, soil characteristics and non‐legume companion crops were used as moderators. …”

Relationship between grain yield and quality traits under optimum and low-nitrogen stress environments in tropical maize por Ertiro, Berhanu Tadesse, Das, Biswanath, Kosgei, Titus, Tarekegne, Amsal, Labuschagne, Maryke T., Worku, Mosisa, Olsen, Michael, Chaikam, Vijay, Gowda, Manje

“…However, the negative trend observed between GY (starch) and protein content suggests the need for the regular monitoring of protein and starch content to identify varieties that combine both high GY and acceptable quality. Finally, we recommend further research with a few tropical maize genotypes contrasting for NUE to understand the relationship between the change in grain quality and NUE under low-N conditions.…”

Genomic architecture of selection for adaptation to challenging environments in aquaculture por Yu, Xiaofei

“…In addition, I also compared the genome of the saline-tolerant and highly productive tilapia “Sukamandi”, that was developed by the aquaculture research institute in Indonesia, to that of blue tilapia and Nile tilapia, to identify the QTLs contributing to salinity tolerance. Finally, I investigated QTLs associated with growth-related traits and organ weights at two distinct commercial Mediterranean product sites differing in temperature (farms in Spain and Greece). …”
