    Characterisation of a diverse set of maize germplasm for resistance to infection by Aspergillus flavus. 

    Kwemoi, Daniel Bomet (Makerere University, 2010)
    Sources of resistance to Aspergillus flavus and accumulation of aflatoxin in maize have been identified elsewhere but no such materials are currently available for use by the maize improvement programme in Uganda. The main ...

    Population diversity of rice bacterial leaf blight isolates in Uganda 

    Habarurema, Innocent; Edema, Richard; Gibson, Paul; Lamo, Jimmy; Asea, Godfrey; Séré, Yacouba; Gasore, Elie R. (Pelagia Research Library, 2013)
    The deployment of resistant cultivars is the best option to control bacterial leaf blight (BLB) and requires an understanding of the pathogen diversity. BLB caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv.oryzae is a destructive disease ...

    Genetics of resistance to groundnut rosette virus disease 

    Kayondo, S.I.; Rubaihayo, P.R.; Ntare, B.R.; Gibson, P.T.; Edema, R.; Ozimati, A.; Okello, D.K. (African Crop Science Society, 2014)
    Groundnut Rosette Virus disease (GRD) has long been regarded a major limiting biotic constraint to groundnut production in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The disease is caused by a complex of three viral components that interact ...

    Inheritance of resistance to rice yellow mottle virus disease in rice in Uganda 

    Lado, Maurice Mogga (2010)
    Rice Yellow Mottle Virus sobemovirus (RYMV) is highly variable and several resistance breaking strains have been identified. This makes breeding for durable resistant very complicated since a variety proven to be resistance ...

    Agronomic performance and breeding potential of selected maize inbred lines for improvement of protein quality of adapted Ugandan germplasm 

    Kalule, Okello David (2008-12-15)
    The main objective of this study was to characterise selected QPM inbred lines obtained from CIMMYT under Ugandan conditions. Agronomic performance and combining abilities were determined to assess the breeding potential ...

    Enhancing genetic resistance to soybean rust disease. 

    Mcebisi, Maphosa (Makerere University, 2013-11)
    Soybean (Glycine max L.) is increasingly playing an important nutritive role in the food and feed industry in most countries. However, the crop is currently threatened by soybean rust disease (Phakopsora pachyrhizi). The ...

    Evaluation of cassava genotypes for resistance to cassava brown streak disease (cbsd) in Uganda. 

    Abaca, Alex (Makerere University, 2013-09)
    Cassava (Manihot esculenta Cranz) production in Uganda is being constrained by the devastating effects of cassava brown streak disease (CBSD). CBSD is caused by cassava brown streak virus (CBSV), which affects all parts ...

    Prevalence of sorghum anthracnose in different agroecologies of Uganda 

    Sserumaga, J.P.; Biruma, M.; Akwero, A.; Okori, P.; Edema, R. (National Agricultural Research Organisation, 2013)
    Nine major sorghum growing agro-ecologies of Uganda were surveyed to establish the sorghum anthracnose incidence and severity. Hierarchical sampling was used. Severity of anthracnose in the field was rated on a scale of ...

    Development of cassava brown streak disease among selected cassava genotypes as influenced by amount of starting inocula and level of host tolerance. 

    Kasifa, Katono (Makerere University, 2014-07)
    Cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) is a major threat to cassava production in Uganda and the coastal areas of eastern Africa. The disease is caused by two ipomovirus species; Cassava brown streak virus (CBSV) and Ugandan ...

    Successful application of FTA® Classic Card technology and use of bacteriophage 29 DNA polymerase for large-scale field sampling and cloning of complete maize streak virus genomes 

    Owor, Betty E.; Shepherd, Dionne N.; Taylor, Nigel J.; Edema, Richard; Monjane, Adѐrito L.; Thomson, Jennifer A.; Martin, Darren P.; Varsani, Arvind (Elsevier, 2007)
    Leaf samples from 155 maize streak virus (MSV)-infected maize plants were collected from 155 farmers’ fields in 23 districts in Uganda in May/June 2005 by leaf-pressing infected samples onto FTA® Classic Cards. Viral DNA ...
