  • Assessment of groundnut (arachis hypogaea l.) genotypes for yield and resistance to late leaf spot and rosette diseases 
    Mohammed, Khalid Elsiddig; Afutu, Emmanuel; Odong, Thomas L.; Okello, David K.; Nuwamanya, Ephraim; Grigon, Olupot; Rubaihayo, Patrick R.; Okori, Patrick (University of Cape Coast, 2018-03)
    Groundnut which is a major staple food crop in Uganda is constrained by late leaf spot (LLS) and groundnut rosette disease (GRD), accounting for major economic yield loss. This study was conducted to identify sources of ...
  • A more complete definition for promiscuous soybean 
    Agoyi, Eric E; Afutu, Emmanuel; Tumuhairwe, John Baptist; Chigeza, Godfrey; Assogbadjo, Achille E; Tukamuhabwa, Phinehas (University of Cape Coast, 2018-02-05)
    Following a series of research on promiscuous nodulation, it came out that it is incomplete to define ‘promiscuous soybean’ as soybean cultivars with the sole ability to form nodules freely with indigenous Bradyrhizobium ...
  • Morphological characterization of Ugandan isolates of Sphaceloma sp. causing cowpea scab disease 
    Afutu, Emmanuel; Agoyi, Eric E.; Kato, Fred; Amayo, Robert; Biruma, Moses; Rubaihayo, Patrick R. (University of Cape Coast, 2016-08)
    Scab is an important fungal disease of cowpea, affecting both young and old tissues including stems, leaves and pods of susceptible cowpea genotypes, leading to significant yield losses of up to 100% under severe infections. ...
  • Resistance mechanisms of late leaf spot and rosette diseases in drought tolerant groundnut genotypes 
    Elsiddig, Mohammed Khalid; Nuwamanya, Ephraim; Afutu, Emmanuel; Wembabazi, Enoch; Natasha, Mwila; Idris, Siddig Eisa; Rubaihayo, Patrick R (University of Cape Coast, 2019)
    Groundnut has been identified as less susceptible to drought which produces moderate yield under drought conditions. Also, drought can enhance effects of late leaf spot and groundnut rosette diseases. However, to reduce ...
  • Ureide essay to assess n2-fixation abilities of soybean (glycine max) genotypes under different brady rhizobium strains 
    . Agoyi, Eric E; Afutu, Emmanuel; Chadare, Flora J.; Tumuhairwe, John B.; Chigeza, Godfree; Tukamuhabwa, Phinehas (University of Cape Coast, 2017)
    The high protein content of soybean (Glycine max) seeds results in high nitrogen demand, causing a huge nitrogen uptake during plant growth. As a legume crop, soybean can fix atmospheric N through symbiotic associations ...
