    • Evaluation of the response of rice genotypes to bacterial leaf streak disease in Uganda 

      Kanaabi, M.; Tukamuhabwa, P.; Tusiime, G.; Lamo, J. (Regional Universities Forum for Capacity Building in Agriculture, 2016-10)
      Destructive rice diseases like bacterial leaf streak (Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola) have been reported to be on the increase. In 2014, researchers in Uganda spotted signs typical of bacterial leaf streak disease (BLS) ...

    • Genetic analysis of resistance to rice bacterial blight in Uganda 

      Habarurema, I.; Asea, G.; Lamo, J.; Gibson, P.; Edema, R.; Séré, Y.; Onasanya, R.O. (African Crop Science Society, 2012)
      Rice bacterial blight (Xanthomonas oryzae pv.oryzae) is a major constraint to rice (Oryza sativa L.) production in Uganda and as part of strategies to develop resistant cultivars, it is important to evaluate resistance of ...

    • Reaction of rice cultivars to a virulent rice yellow mottle virus strain in Uganda 

      Mogga, M.L.; Lamo, J.; Asea, G.; Gibson, P.; Edema, R. (African Crop Science Society, 2012)
      Rice (Oryza spp.) has long been an important food staple for many traditional rice growing communities. Key developments in efforts to improve rice production such as the development of NERICA varieties have been widely ...

    • Response to cold stress at reproductive stage of introduced and adapted rice genotypes in Uganda 

      Nyiramugisha, J.; Lamo, J.; Oloka, B.M.; Ongom, P.; Gibson, P.; Edema, R. (Regional Universities Forum for Capacity Building in Agriculture, 2016-10)
      Exposure of rice (Oryza sativa) to cold stress has significant negative impacts on its development and yield. Prospects of increasing production by growing rice in highland areas of Uganda have not been fruitful due to ...
