Modeling cropping strategies to improve human nutrition in Uganda
This paper contrasts two Ugandan cropping systems, a banana-based (Musa AAA) and a grain-based (Zea mays and Sorghum bicolor), and focuses on the potential of each to provide food in sucient quantity to meet household nutritional requirements. The objectives of this study were to estimate the amount of energy, protein, vitamin A, Ca, Fe and Zn furnished by these two systems; and to model cropp...

15 صفحه اولIncreasing agricultural water use efficiency to meet future food production
With the world’s population set to increase by 65% (3.7 billion) by ∼2050, the additional food required to feed future generations will put further enormous pressure on freshwater resources. This is because agriculture is the largest single user of fresh water, accounting for ∼75% of current human water use. At present ∼7% of the world’s population live in areas where water is scarce. This is p...

15 صفحه اولEngineering crassulacean acid metabolism to improve water-use efficiency.
Climatic extremes threaten agricultural sustainability worldwide. One approach to increase plant water-use efficiency (WUE) is to introduce crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) into C3 crops. Such a task requires comprehensive systems-level understanding of the enzymatic and regulatory pathways underpinning this temporal CO2 pump. Here we review the progress that has been made in achieving this g...
