Physiological characterization of kenyan sorghum lines for tolerance to aluminium
Matonyei, Thomas; Cheprot, Reuben K.; Maritim K. K.; Beatrice Ang’iyo Were; Dangasuk O. George; Onkware, Augustino; Gudu, Samuel (2015-08-21)Eighty nine Kenyan sorghum lines were screened for tolerance to aluminium toxicity in nutrient solution. Relative net root growth; root tip aluminium content and variation in organic acid exudation were used to determine ... -

Kisinyo, Peter; Palapala, Valerie Adema; Gudu, Samuel; Opala, P. A.; Othieno, Caleb; Okalebo, J.R.; Otinga, A.N. (African Journal of Agricultural Reseach, 2014-06-18) -
Response of Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) De Wit (Leucaena) Provenances to Aluminium in Potted Soil Experiment
Onkware, Augustino; Gudu, Samuel; Palapala, Valerie; Kisinyo, Peter (2015-08-21)Aims: To determine the level of acid or aluminium tolerance provenances in Leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala) a favourite agroforestry tree in Kenya. Study Design: The set up was a 2-factor (provenance-aluminium) experiment ... -
Response of Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Munch) and Chemical Characteristics of Soil to Organic and Inorganic Fertilizers on Kenyan Lower Midlands Acid Soil
Kisinyo, Peter; Opala, P. A.; Gudu, Samuel (International Journal of Plant & Soil Science, 2019-05-17)Soil acidity, low level of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and soil organic matter are major constraints to sorghum production in Kenya. We investigated the effect of farmyard manure (FYM) and combined application of inorganic ... -
Screening of maize single cross hybrids for tolerance to low phosphorus
Ouma, Evans Ochieng; Gudu, Samuel; Agalo, Joyce; Matonyei, Thomas; Ligeyo, Dickson (2011) -
Screening Selected Maize Single Crosses for Tolerance to Low P in Acidic Soils of Bumala and Maseno
Gudu, Samuel; Ochuodgo, J; Olung’ati, O.E,Kiplagat O. (2018)Generally, 13% of Kenya’s arable land mass (7.5 million ha) is acidic and prone to poor phophorus (P) availability and soil acidity. This results in crop yield losses due to the direct adverse effects Aluminium toxicity ...
