Forage and Grain Quality Evaluation Project: Phenotypic Dataset of Oat Germplasm Evaluated in Ethiopian Highland Environments

Lidya Ashenafi, Mesfin Dejene, Kedir Mohammed, Tilahun Mekonnen et autres

This dataset contains phenotypic field evaluation data generated from a germplasm collection assessed under Ethiopian highland agroecological conditions. The study was conducted as part of ILRI–CGIAR research activities focusing on forage and grain quality, improvement, climate resilience, and accelerated breeding for livestock …

Genome-wide association mapping for grain and forage quality traits in a subtropical oat germplasm collection adapted to highland regions of Eastern Africa

Lidya Ashenafi, Mesfin Dejene, Kedir Mohammed, Fekede Feyisa et autres

Abstract Oat ( Avena sativa L.) is a globally important cereal cultivated for both livestock feed and human nutrition. However, its productivity is increasingly constrained by both biotic and abiotic stresses, exacerbated by rapid climate change. To support the development of dual-usage, …

A population genomics approach to unlock the genetic potential of lablab ( Lablab purpureus ), an underutilized tropical forage crop

Abel Teshome, Ermias Habte, Jehanzeb Cheema, Aklilu Mekasha et autres

Abstract Background In Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) livestock production and productivity are severely restricted by the scarce supply of feedstuffs and forage crops, while those available are often of low nutritional quality resulting in poor animal productivity and leading to widespread malnutrition among …
