A Transcriptomic Comparison of Two Bambara Groundnut Landraces under Dehydration Stress
The ability to grow crops under low-water conditions is a significant advantage in relation to global food security. Bambara groundnut is an underutilised crop grown by subsistence farmers in Africa and is known to survive in regions of water deficit. This study focuses on the analysis of the transcriptomic changes in two bambara groundnut landraces in response to dehydration stress. A cross-sp...
متن کاملAnalysis of genetic diversity in bambara groundnut [Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc] landraces using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers
Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) was used to assess genetic diversity among 100 selected bambara groundnut [Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc] landraces from a diverse geographic area of Tanzania. Eleven informative AFLP primer combinations generated a total of 49 scorable polymorphic amplification fragments across the bambara groundnut accessions. Genetic distances between all accessio...
متن کاملpreliminary investigation on some agronomic and morphological variations of within and between bambara groundnut landraces
bambara groundnut [vigna subterranea (l.) verdc.] is an indigenous legume crop in africa. it has comparable value to other legumes for food and nutritional security in the continent. however, small-scale farmers continue cultivating unimproved landrace varieties over the production areas in sub-saharan africa. bambara groundnut landraces exist as heterogeneous mixtures of seeds, which typically...
متن کاملIdentification of Gene Modules Associated with Low Temperatures Response in Bambara Groundnut by Network-Based Analysis
Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc.) is an African legume and is a promising underutilized crop with good seed nutritional values. Low temperature stress in a number of African countries at night, such as Botswana, can effect the growth and development of bambara groundnut, leading to losses in potential crop yield. Therefore, in this study we developed a computational pipeline to ...
متن کاملSome Engineering and Chemical Properties of Cooked Bambara Groundnut
The effect of cooking duration on the chemical, physical and thermal properties of bambara groundnut were investigated. The samples were analyzed for chemical composition, physical properties (length, width, and thickness, arithmetic mean, geometric mean, sphericity, surface area and aspect ratio) and thermal properties (specific heat capacity, thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity). Dat...
