Sorghum is an important food and feed crop in the semiarid regions of the world. Hence, this
study was conducted to evaluate genetic variability and traits associations among 81
Sorghum genotypes Northeastern ...
Faba bean, a globally important pulse, offers genetic variation for plant breeders,
although information on this variability is scarce in Ethiopia. Therefore, the study was
conducted to assess the genetic variability and ...
Genetic diversity is valuable for barley breeding programs, as it allows for the selection of
desirable traits for further improvement. Compared to the genetic resources available in
the gene bank and the ever-changing ...
Bread wheat is a hexaploid and one of the most staple crop. The cornerstone of a wheat
breeding program is genetic variability. Hence, to assess the genetic variability and
association of traits eighty-one bread wheat ...
Bread wheat is the major food source for the largest portion of the world, including Ethiopia,
due to its high yielding and wider adaptability. Genotype by environment interaction and
stability studies were not conducted ...
Soybean is a multipurpose leguminous oil crop with high grain nutritional and
industrial value. However, the crop has a narrow genetic base in Ethiopia, which
makes it susceptible to different diseases, insects, and ...
In the present study, a total of 36 kabuli chickpea genotypes consisting of two tolerant check genotypes
pooled from ICRISAT, !CARDA and Debre Zeit Agricultural Research Center were evaluated under field
experiment.for ...
The experiment was conducted at experimental sites of Adet Agricultural Research Center namely
Finoteselam, Adet, Simada, Jnjibara and Debretabor in 2014 cropping season under rain fed
condition. In Ethiopia, although ...
Agro-morphological characterization is basic in order to provide information for plant
breeding programs. Forty nine upland rice genotypes were tested in 7*7 simple lattice
design at Fogera in Wereta station of Adet ...
To assess the range of variability, heritability and genetic advance and association between
yield and yield component traits of rice, field experiment was conducted using twelve upland
rice genotypes during 2013 main ...
An experiment was conducted at Holetta Agricultural Research Center with the objective
of analysing genotypic diversity and interrelationship of characters in Ethiopian food
barley (Hordium vulgare L.) landraces. One ...
The study was conducted with the aim of evaluating the performance of 19 maize hybrids
which were released for production in high potential maize zones of Ethiopia by three foreign
private (Pioneer hybrid Seeds Ethiopia, ...
Prior knowledge on genetic variability is required in crop improvement programs. Information on genetic
variability in garlic genotypes is important for the genetic improvement. Garlic has been valued for food, culinary, ...
Due to a lack of varied rice genotypes, Ethiopia's rice (Oryza sativa L.) productivity is low
compared to the world average. As a result, it's critical to characterize and identify the
variability of introduced rice ...
Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) is an economically important crop worldwide including
Ethiopia. In Ethiopia, considerable genetic materials are available. However, research on
soybean genetic variability and association ...
An evaluation of genetic variability is useful for plant breeding and in the development of efficient
crop genotypes for different conditions. Eighty-one upland rice (Oryza sativa L.) genotypes were
tested for 15 ...
Knowledge on the nature and magnitude of genetic diversity is the primary requirement for the
initiation of breeding programs. Therefore, the present experiment was conducted to assess the
genetic diversity and association ...
Evaluations of genetic variability is useful for plant breeding and in the development of efficient
crop genotypes for different conditions. Eighty-one bread wheat genotypes were tested for 17
agronomic and quality traits ...
Tef (Eragrostis tef (Zucc.) Trotter) is a gluten free cereal crop mainly grown in Ethiopia for food, feed and cash. Knowledge on the nature and magnitude of variation existing in breeding materials and interrelationships ...
Malt barley is the most important cereal crop grown in highland parts of Ethiopia and valuable raw material for beer factories. However, the presence of diverse environments and a limited number of stable varieties are the ...
