The ecology of Maesopsis eminii Engl. in tropical Africa
(African Journal of Ecology, 2017)
Maesopsis eminii is referred to as one of the most widely
distributed African tree species. However, its occurrence in
Africa has never been mapped and little is known as to
how this species can sustain in different ...
Capacitive water release and internal leaf water relocation delay drought-induced cavitation in African Maesopsis eminii
(Tree physiology, 2017)
The impact of drought on the hydraulic functioning of important African tree species, like Maesopsis eminii Engl., is poorly understood.
To map the hydraulic response to drought-induced cavitation, sole reliance on the ...
Plant measurements on African tropical Maesopsis eminii seedlings contradict pioneering water use behaviour
(Environmental and Experimental Botany, 2017)
With increased drought events affecting forests globally, little is known about their future impact on
Africa’s forests. In particular, we need to gain a better understanding of how key African forest species
will respond ...
Study of inheritance and identification of molecular markers for seed protein content in pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.)
(University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, Republic of South Africa, 2017)
Pigeonpea is an important source of protein to the vegetarian and poor families around the
globe, however, very little is known about the genetic control of seed protein content (SPC)
and how it relates with other ...
Characterization and mapping of Dt1 locus which co‑segregates with CcTFL1 for growth habit in pigeonpea
(Theor Appl Genet, 2017)
Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) is one of the most
important legume crops grown in arid and semi-arid regions
of the world. It is characterized with few unique features
compared with other legume species, such as Lotus, ...
Molecular mapping of seed protein content in pigeonpea – a drought tolerant crop of the semi-arid tropics
(: InterDrought, 2017)
Pigeonpea is a uniquely drought and heat tolerant crop that provides a major source of dietary protein to nearly a billion people in the tropical and semi-arid tropics of the world. Despite its importance as a source of ...
