Heritability of drought resistance in Solanum aethiopicum Shum group and combining ability of genotypes for drought tolerance and recovery
Sseremba, Godfrey; Tongoona, Pangirayi; Yaw Eleblu, John; Yirenkyi Danquah, Eric; Balyejusa Kizito, Elizabeth (Elsevier, 2018-06)Drought tolerance is a complex trait whose inheritance had not been investigated in Solanum aethiopicum L. Shum group. This is partly because of perceived cross incompatibilities in the crop. This study relied on 24 ... -
Morphological distinctiveness between Solanum aethiopicum Shum group and its progenitor
Sseremba, Godfrey; Tongoona, Pangirayi; Yaw Eleblu, John Savior; Yirenkyi Danquah, Eric; Kabod, Nahamya Pamela; Balyejusa Kizito, Elizabeth (Academic Journals, 2017-06)Use of morphological markers offers an alternative in germplasm discrimination of research-neglected crop species. A collection of 25 accessions including five wild progenitors was evaluated in screen house to identify ... -
Stability of Solanum aethiopicum Shum accessions under varied water deficit stress levels and identification of pertinent breeding traits for resistance to water shortage
Sseremba, Godfrey; Tongoona, Pangirayi; Yaw Eleblu, John Savior; Yirenkyi Danquah, Eric; Kaweesi, Tadeo; Baguma, Yona; Masanza, Michael; Balyejusa Kizito, Elizabeth (Springer Science+Business Media B.V., part of Springer Nature, 2017-12)Drought is a major constraint to productivity of Solanum aethiopicum ‘Shum’ group due to loss in market and nutrient value of stressed plants. This study evaluated S. aethiopicum Shum group accessions to identify genotypes ...
