Yellow-pericarp sorghum landraces have value for food, feed and dryland production, but their breeding progress is constrained by limited selectable variability. This study quantified induced variability for 11 yield and yield contributing traits in 39 M₅ mutant derivatives of the rabi landrace Udgir Piwali, together w...

Improving wheat for climate change requires understanding how seedling root systems affect adult plant performance. We evaluated 116 spring bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes across 25 traits under non-limiting moisture conditions. Analysis of variance revealed significant genotypic variation (p < 0.01) for a...

The improvement of winged bean offers great importance for food and nutritional security in sub-Saharan Africa under climate change, yet limited information exists on the genetic variability and seed yield stability of available germplasm under multi-environment conditions. Therefore, the identification of high-yieldin...

This study investigated the genetic architecture and stability of important agronomic and physiological traits in 224 cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) genotypes evaluated across six environments in Nigeria. The trials were conducted during the 2015 and 2016 cropping seasons in three agro-ecological zones: Umudike (ra...

Genetic diversity present in rice genotypes plays a crucial role in improving breeding strategies and developing high-quality cultivars. This study evaluated genetic diversity, agronomic performance, and disease resistance across 110 unique rice cultivars over two growing seasons (2021–2022) using an alpha-lattice desi...

Barley is a crucial crop worldwide, but it faces significant production challenges due to limited adaptable varieties, poor management practices, and environmental factors. Food barley varieties often struggle in unfamiliar environments, leading to crop loss. To address this issue, a study was conducted to evalua...
