The study of genetic variability for key agro-morphological traits is crucial in sorghum
breeding. Although, the national sorghum improvement programs have released a number of
sorghum varieties for the highland areas ...
Tef is one of the most important crops widely cultivated throughout Ethiopia as a staple

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of breed (rams and ewes), sex and birth type on
growth performances of cross bred lambs of sheep under semi-intensive production system. Dorper
and Horro rams were ...
The yield performance of maize genotypes is highly influenced by environmental factors
and genotype by environment interaction (GEI). The presence of GEI makes it difficult to
select the best performing as well as the ...
Information on the diversity of landraces is necessary to improve the crops through
selection and/or hybridization. This study was conducted to generate information on
diversity of fenugreek accessions, associated ...
Ethiopia is the center of origin and domestication for sorghum with a wide range of sorghum
collections for various agro-ecologies. However, there are many factors that hinder the
production and productivity of sorghum. ...
Common bean is an important herbaceous annual grain legume in the world, chiefly grown as
a source of protein, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals in human diets. In Ethiopia,
beyond promoting food, health and nutritional ...
Drought is among the most important obstacles in agriculture that retard the production as well
as productivity of the crops across the entire world. Since sorghum is highly produced from arid
to semi-arid tropics, it ...
Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is one of the tuber crops produced in Ethiopia, mainly at mid
and highlands of Ethiopia, due to the absence of potato varieties adaptable to lowland areas
of the country. The country has ...
Sorghum is one of the most important cereal crops grown in the world for human consumption,
animal feed and bio-energy. Biotic and abiotic stress are the most dominant constraints for the
production and productivity ...
It is imperative to study the level of genetic variability available in the existing groundnut
genotypes due to the fact that, the aim of groundnut breeding programs across the world is
to develop new varieties that ...
