    A preliminary analysis of diversity among East African sweet potato landraces using morphological and simple sequence repeats (SSR) markers 

    Gichuru, V.; Aritua, V.; Lubega, G.W.; Edema, R.; Adipala, E.; Rubaihayo, P.R. (International Society for Hoticultural Science, 2006)
    East Africa is known to have a wide range of sweet potato landraces and, therefore, is considered to be a secondary center of diversity. In this study, we assessed the diversity among sweet potato landraces from Kenya, ...

    Development of intermittent drought stress tolerant common bean genotypes in Uganda 

    Amongi, W.; Nkalubo, S.T.; Ochwo-Ssemakula, M.; Gibson, P.T.; Edema, R. (African Crop Science Society, 2014)
    Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) varieties that are high yielding and drought-tolerant are crucial in coping with the effects of drought, that is prevalent among small scale producers living in Uganda. The objective of ...

    Genetic characterisation of Ugandan strains of Colletotrichum sublineolum using ISSR makers. 

    Sserumaga, J.P.; Biruma, M.; Akwero, A.; Okori, P.; Edema, R. (National Agricultural Research Organisation, 2013)
    Colletotrichum sublineolum, the causal agent of sorghum anthracnose, presents high variability, genetic instability and host specialisation, hence rapidly breaking down resistance. In Uganda, no population studies of ...

    Response of local cassava varieties in Uganda to cassava mosaic virus disease 

    Adriko, J.; Sserubombwe, W.S.; Adipala, E.; Bua, A.; Edema, R. (SCIENCEDOMAIN International, 2012)
    Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) resistant varieties have been used to manage CMD in Uganda. In spite the availability of a number of CMD resistant cultivars, several local landraces are continually grown in Uganda because ...

    Improvement of resistance to fusarium root rot through gene pyramiding in common bean 

    Obala, J.; Rubaihayo, P.R.; Gibson, P.; Edema, R.; Mukankusi, C. (African Crop Science Society, 2012)
    Fusarium root rot (FRR), caused by Fusarium solani f.sp. phaseoli, is one of the most serious root rot diseases of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) throughout the world. Yield losses of up to 84% have been attributed ...
