Genetic Characterization of Alupe Napier Grass Accessions Based on Simple Sequence Repeat Markers

Geofrey Kawube, Jolly Kabirizi & Clementine Namazzi · Journal of Experimental Agriculture International · 2015

Genetic variability of 23 Napier grass clones, 22 of which were collected from Kenya Agricultural Research Institute – at Alupe in Kenya was determined using 17 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. All markers were polymorphic with the most discriminative being PSMP2267. Average...

Temporal Dynamics of Napier Grass Stunt Disease as Influenced by Napier Grass Clones and Initial Inoculum

Geofrey Kawube, Herbert Talwana, Titus Alicai, Michael Otim, Anthony Mukwaya & Jolly Kabirizi · Journal of Experimental Agriculture International · 2015

Napier grass stunt disease (NGSD) is the main biotic factor limiting Napier grass production in the East African region. Its management is, however, hampered by inadequate epidemiological information. This study determined the temporal spread of NGSD in Napier grass fields. A fie...
