Overcoming phosphorus deficiency in West African pearl millet and sorghum production systems: promising options for crop improvement [PDF]

, 2016
West Africa (WA) is among the most food insecure regions. Rapid human population growth and stagnating crop yields greatly contribute to this fact. Poor soil fertility, especially low plant available phosphorus (P) is constraining food production in the ...

Effect of Germination on the Nutrient Profile, Antioxidant Components, Antinutritional Constituents, and Functional Characteristics of Barnyard Millet (Echinochloa frumentacea)

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Germination is a simple and effective strategy to improve the nutritional and functional quality of millets. In this study, barnyard millet was germinated for 24, 48, and 72 h to evaluate its impact on nutrient composition, antioxidant properties, antinutritional factors, and functional characteristics.

Prospective of indigenous African wild food plants in alleviation of the severe iron deficiency anaemia in Sub‐Saharan Africa

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 486-498, March 2026.
Iron deficiency anaemia remains a major public health challenge in Sub‐Saharan Africa, where population growth, displacement and limited resources heighten nutritional insecurity. We compiled a list of indigenous African underutilized wild food plants and examined their potential for addressing micronutrient deficiencies.

Skim‐sequencing for genomic selection in wheat: a comparison of marker platforms

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract The promise of genomics‐assisted breeding relies on efficient, affordable, and abundant molecular markers. Leveraging modern sequencing technology, commercial laboratory products, and open‐source software, we demonstrate how ultra‐low whole‐genome sequencing coverage (skim‐seq, 0.05–0.10x) can be a viable marker platform. The direct generation
