Gender-responsive Researchers Equipped for Agricultural Transformation

Gender-responsive Researchers Equipped for Agricultural Transformation: Trainer’s Manual for the Gender-Responsive Plant Breeding Course by Margaret Najjingo Mangheni, Hale Ann Tufan
English | EPUB (True) | 2022 | 174 Pages | ISBN : N/A | 2.4 MB

This manual presents the training process for the Gender-Responsive Plant Breeding course, implemented by Makerere and Cornell Universities, over a period of five years (2016-2020), under the Gender-Responsive Researchers Equipped for Agricultural Transformation (GREAT) project funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. It has five broad parts: I) Introduction; II) Required preparation before the course; III) Phase one (9-day, face-to-face training); IV) the 5-month Field Training phase; and V) Phase two (5-day, face-to-face training). Each session consists of specific learning objectives, session plans and slides, delivery methods, practical exercises and examples, as well as relevant tips and synthesized take-home messages. The sessions were developed by an international multidisciplinary team of experts in gender and agriculture and subjected to a rigorous peer review and quality assurance process. GREAT aims to contribute to building a pool of gender-responsive agricultural researchers able to advance more equitable and effective agricultural systems in Africa and beyond. This manual is for all facilitators/trainers interested in applied, gender responsive agricultural research.

Molecular Breeding for Rice Abiotic Stress Tolerance and Nutritional Quality

Molecular Breeding for Rice Abiotic Stress Tolerance and Nutritional Quality by Mohammad Anwar Hossain, Lutful Hassan, Khandakar Md. Ifterkharuddaula, Arvind Kumar, Robert Henry
English | PDF | 2021 | 461 Pages | ISBN : 1119633117 | 7.8 MB

Presents the latest knowledge of improving the stress tolerance, yield, and quality of rice crops
One of the most important cereal crops, rice provides food to more than half of the world population. Various abiotic stresses—currently impacting an estimated 60% of crop yields—are projected to increase in severity and frequency due to climate change. In light of the threat of global food grain insecurity, interest in molecular rice breeding has intensified in recent years. Progress has been made, but there remains an urgent need to develop stress-tolerant, bio-fortified rice varieties that provide consistent and high-quality yields under both stress and non-stress conditions.
