Based on the data collected during the reconnaissance survey, a total of five districts were selected for the baseline survey. Two districts were from western Kenya region (Bungoma and Siaya) and three districts from eastern Kenya region (Embu, Meru South and Imenti South). A total of 600 households were targeted for this survey (300 in each region). In...

Using purposive sampling, the central and Southern regions were selected. The Central region transcends from high to low altitude while the Southern region is predominantly a low altitude area. Maize is extensively grown in both regions with groundnuts and haricot beans being the dominant legume crops. The southern region however has pigeon pea as the...

A combination of purposive and stratified sampling methods were used to include a total of four districts (Sussundenga, Manica, Gorongosa, and Angonia) in the survey. Two of the districts, Sussundenga and Manica are situated in the province of Manica while Gorongosa and Angonia are found in the provinces of Sofola and Tete, respectively. A multi-stage...

The survey targeted two maize-legume based farming systems in the eastern and northern zones of Tanzania. In the eastern zone the survey target two districts; Kilosa and Mvomero. While in the northern zone the study focused on Mbulu and Karatu districts. A combination of purposive and stratified sampling methods were used to select the four districts...

A multi-stage sampling was employed to identify households. In the first stage 9 districts (five form Oromyia region, three from SNNP region and one from Benshangul region) were selected purposely. Accordingly, Bako Tibe, Gubuesyo, Shalla, Dudga, Adami Tullu, Mesrak Badawacho, Meskan, Hawassa Zuriya and Pawe selected. As the program focused on maize based...

This tutorial explains how to use the IWIN-DAP, which is an Add-In to Microsoft Excel 2010, to analyze data from CIMMYT’s International Wheat Information System. IWIN-DAP is an illustration of an alternative, quick and easy approach allowing the use of Excel to analyze multi-location trials from CIMMYT international nurseries. This tutorial explains, step...

Turkish landraces were genotyped using GBS and phenotyped for grain yield and yield component traits and stripe rust resistance at three locations. The data was used for a genome wide association study and important marker-trait associations were identified.

The International Bread Wheat Screening Nursery (IBWSN) is designed to rapidly assess a large number of advanced generation (F3-F7) lines of spring bread wheat under Mega-environment 1 (ME1) which represents diversity for a wide range of latitudes, climates, daylengths, fertility conditions, water management, and (most importantly) disease conditions. The...
