Effect of Different Watering Regimes on Agromorphology of Selected Coffee Genotypes
(SCIENCEDOMAIN international, 2014-01-27)
Aims: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of different watering regimes on
selected coffee genotypes and to evaluate drought tolerance among selected coffee
genotypes. The study also aimed at determining ...
Genetic diversity among commercial coffee varieties, advanced selections and museum collections in Kenya using molecular markers
(Academic Journals, 2012-02)
Molecular markers have effectively been applied to study genetic diversity and as markers of particular traits. This study assessed the diversity of twenty four (24) coffee genotypes using 10 Random Amplified Polymorphic ...
Morphological characterization of Kenyan native wood ear mushroom [Auricularia auricula (L. ex Hook.) Underw.] and the effect of supplemented millet and sorghum grains in spawn production
(2011)
Utilization of mushrooms collected from the wild requires adequate description of useful phenetic features and domestication protocols. This study investigated morphological characters and spawn production procedures of ...
Variation and Association of Cup Quality Attributes and Resistance to Coffee Berry Disease in Coffea Arabica L. Composite Cultivar, Ruiru 11
(2013-12)
Majority of reported work on coffee breeding primarily concerns agronomic improvement that directly impinges on coffee quality. However, it is crucial that coffee breeding programmes for disease resistance also include ...
Field Screening of Selected Coffea arabica L. Genotypes Against Coffee Leaf Rust
(2012-06)
Coffee Leaf Rust (CLR) is a fungal disease caused by Hemileia vastatrix Berk et Br. and is one of the major diseases of coffee. It causes premature leaf fall, yield loss and even death of the tree in severe cases. Coffee ...
