      Kisinyo, Peter; Othieno, Caleb; Gudu, Samuel; Okalebo, J. R.; Opala, P. A.; Maghanga, J. K.; Agalo, Jerry; Ng'etich, W. K.; Kisinyo, Joyce; Osiyo, R. J.; Nekesa, A. O.; Makatiani, E. T.; Odee, D. W.; Ogola, B. O. (2015-07-21)
      Aluminium (Al) toxicity, phosphorus (P) deficiency and low rhizobia populations limit Sesbania (Sesbania sesban) performance in tropical acid soils. The study determined the i) indigenous rhizobia populations that nodulate ...
    • Phosphorus Sorption and Lime Requirements of Maize Growing Acid Soils of Kenya 

      Kisinyo, Peter; Othieno, Caleb; Gudu, Samuel; Okalebo, J. R.; Opala, P. A.; Maghanga, J. K.; Ng'etich, W. K.; Agalo, Joyce; Opile, R.W.; Kisinyo, Joyce; Ogola, B. O. (2015-08-21)
