Germplasm enhancement for increasing groundnut productivity and production in West and Central Africa
This conference paper discusses current efforts to deploy modern breeding approaches and tools to enhance genetic gains and support national groundnut breeding programs in West and Central Africa.
Selection of intermittent drought tolerant lines across years and locations in the reference collection of groundnut
The results presented in this paper show a close interaction between environmental conditions and the genotypic response to intermittent drought, suggesting the need to carefully choose environments that truly represent target environments.
Breeding peanut for resistance to Aflatoxin contamination at ICRISAT
The research presented in this paper suggests that transgenic resistance against fungal infection and aflatoxin production in combination with conventional breeding efforts may lead to the development of agronomically superior peanuts that are free of aflatoxin contamination.
