Onfarm trials comparing the local streakdisease susceptible maize with a streakdisease resistant variety in southeastern Zaire por Vogel, W.O., Berhe, T., Hennessey, R.D.

“…The objectives of the trials were:1. to compare the yield of the local variety and Babungo-3 under farm conditions, 2. to estimate the economic benefit of growing Babungo-3 to the average farm family. 3. to investigate the varietal traits that are responsible for the difference in economic benefit. 4. to compare the response of the two varieties to fert1l1zer. 5. to Investigate whether the improved variety could extend planting time. and 6. to set the stage for future economic studies.…”

High genetic diversity but absence of population structure in local chickens of Sri Lanka inferred by microsatellite markers por Samaraweera, A.M., Liyanage, R., Ibrahim, M.N.M., Okeyo Mwai, Ally, Han Jianlin, Silva, P.

“…The finding confirms the genetic wealth conserved within the populations as a result of the breeding system commonly practiced by chicken owners. Thus, the existing local chicken populations should be considered as a harbor of gene pool, which can be readily utilized in developing locally adapted and improved chicken breeds in the future.…”
