    Study of inheritance and identification of molecular markers for seed protein content in pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) 

    Obala, Jimmy (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 ...

    Improvement of resistance to Fusarium root rot through gene pyramiding and validation of SSR PVBR87 marker in common bean 

    Obala, Jimmy (Makerere University, 2011)
    Fusarium root rot caused by Fusarium solani f. sp. phaseoli is among the most serious diseases of the common bean in Uganda causing total crop loss in susceptible cultivars. Studies have indicated that 2-9 genes located ...

    Seed protein content and its relationships with agronomic traits in pigeonpea is controlled by both main and epistatic efects QTLs 

    Obala, Jimmy; Saxena, Rachit K.; Singh, Vikas K.; Kale, Sandip M.; Garg, Vanika; Kumar, C.V. Sameer; Saxena, K. B.; Tongoona, Pangirayi; Sibiya, Julia; Varshney, Rajeev K. (Scientific Reports, 2020)
    The genetic architecture of seed protein content (SPC) and its relationships to agronomic traits in pigeonpea is poorly understood. Accordingly, fve F2 populations segregating for SPC and four agronomic traits (seed ...

    QTL-seq for the identification of candidate genes for days to flowering and leaf shape in pigeonpea 

    Singh, Vikas; Sinha, Pallavi; Obala, Jimmy; Khan, Aamir W.; Chitikinen, Annapurna; Saxena, Rachit K.; Varshney, Rajeev K. (Heredity, 2022)
    To identify genomic segments associated with days to flowering (DF) and leaf shape in pigeonpea, QTL-seq approach has been used in the present study. Genome-wide SNP profiling of extreme phenotypic bulks was conducted for ...

    Pyramiding Fusarium root rot resistance genes and validation of SSR PVBR87 in common bean 

    Obala, Jimmy; Rubaihayo, P.R; Mukankusi, C; Gibson, P (RUFORUM, 2010)
    This study determined effectiveness of pyramided Fusarium root rot (FRR) resistance genes and validated association of SSR PVBR87 marker with FRR resistance in common bean. A double cross (DC) involving four resistance ...

    Genomics-assisted breeding for boosting crop improvement in pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) 

    Pazhamala, Lekha; Saxena, Rachit K.; Singh, Vikas K.; Sameerkumar, C. V.; Kumar, Vinay; Sinha, Pallavi; Patel, Kishan; Obala, Jimmy; Kaoneka, Seleman R.; Tongoona, P.; Shimelis, Hussein A.; Gangarao, N. V. P. R.; Odeny, Damaris; Rathore, Abhishek; Dharmaraj, P. S.; Yamini, K. N.; Varshney, Rajeev K. (Frontiers in plant science, 2015)
    Pigeonpea is an important pulse crop grown predominantly in the tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. Although pigeonpea growing area has considerably increased, yield has remained stagnant for the last six ...

    Development of sequence-based markers for seed protein content in pigeonpea 

    Obala, Jimmy; Saxena, Rachit K.; Singh, Vikas K.; Kumar, C. V. Sameer; Saxena, K. B.; Tongoona, Pangirayi; Sibiya, Julia; Varshney, Rajeev K. (Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2019)
    Pigeonpea is an important source of dietary protein to over a billion people globally, but genetic enhancement of seed protein content (SPC) in the crop has received limited attention for a long time. Use of genomics-assisted ...

    Characterization and mapping of Dt1 locus which co‑segregates with CcTFL1 for growth habit in pigeonpea 

    Saxena, Rachit K; Obala, Jimmy; Sinjushin, Andrey; Kumar, C.V. Sameer; Saxena, K.B.; Varshney, Rajeev K. (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, ...

    Effect of potato-bean intercrop arrangement, plant spacing and fertiliser usage on plant growth and tuber yield in different environments 

    Nakibuule, J; Obala, Jimmy; Kigambo, M; Kajunju, N.H.B; Mugisha, J (Makerere University Journal of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, 2022)
    In Uganda, potato (Solanum tuberosum. L) is an important cash and food crop but its productivity has stagnated at around 3.5 t ha-1, far below potential (20 t ha-1), mainly due to soil exhaustion resulting from land ...
