Immediate and residual effects of lime and phosphorus fertilizer on soil acidity and maize production in western Kenya
(2015-08-21)
Soil acidity and phosphorus (P) deficiency are some of the major causes of low maize yields in Kenya.
This study determined the immediate and residual effects of lime and P fertilizer on soil pH, exchangeable
aluminium ...
Phylogenetic relationship among Kenyan sorghum germplasms based on aluminium tolerance
(2015-08-21)
Eighty nine (89) sorghum lines sourced from various parts of Kenya were used to determine
phylogenetic relationships based on 10 DNA fragments at AltSB loci with SbMATE, ORF9 and MITE
primers. Nine lines of varying ...
Physiological characterization of kenyan sorghum lines for tolerance to aluminium
(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 ...
