Pleistocene Hypothesis – Moving Savanna Perceptual Preference Hypothesis Beyond Savanna [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
We provide an extension of the Savanna perceptual preference hypothesis (“Savanna Hypothesis”), supposing that interaction with landscapes offering survival advantage for human groups during evolution might have gradually evolved to permanent landscape preferences.

A distinct ecotonal tree community exists at central African forest-savanna transitions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
1. Global change is expected to increase savanna woody encroachment as well as fire spreading into forest. Forest‐savanna ecotones are the frontier of these processes and can thus either mitigate or enhance the effects of global change.

Frequent burning promotes invasions of alien plants into a mesic African savanna [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Fire is both inevitable and necessary for maintaining the structure and functioning of mesic savannas. Without disturbances such as fire and herbivory, tree cover can increase at the expense of grass cover and over time dominate mesic savannas ...

Pattern Formation in Mesic Savannas

open access: yesBulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2023
AbstractWe analyze a spatially extended version of a well-known model of forest-savanna dynamics, which presents as a system of nonlinear partial integro-differential equations, and study necessary conditions for pattern-forming bifurcations. Homogeneous solutions dominate the dynamics of the standard forest-savanna model, regardless of the length ...

Genetic variability, heritability and correlation analysis among maturity and yield traits in Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L) Walp) in Northern Ghana

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
Experimental studies were conducted to evaluate 16 advanced breeding lines of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L) Walp) for genetic variability, heritability and correlation between maturity and yield related traits.

Integrated peanut aflatoxin management for increase income and nutrition in Northern Ghana

open access: yesCogent Food & Agriculture, 2017
Aflatoxins contamination in peanut seeds remains a major challenge in Ghana. This study evaluated aflatoxin levels in peanut samples from farmer storage units, and participatory on-farm research trials.

Performance of maize populations under different nitrogen rates in northern Ghana

open access: yesAnnals of Agricultural Sciences, 2018
This study evaluated grain yield performance, stability and agronomic nitrogen-use efficiency (AE) of twelve maize populations under three nitrogen (N) rates at two locations in the Guinea and Sudan savannah zones of Ghana in 2014 and 2015.

Analysis of genotype by environment interaction for grain yield of intermediate maturing drought tolerant top-cross maize hybrids under rain-fed conditions

open access: yesCogent Food & Agriculture, 2017
Maize plays a crucial role in combating food insecurity in Ghana due to its high yield potential and wide adaptability. Thirty five intermediate maturing maize hybrids were evaluated at eight locations in Ghana for two years (i) to determine grain yield ...

Stability of Sources of Resistance to Cowpea Aphid (Aphis craccivora Koch, Hemiptera: Aphididae) across Major Cowpea Production Zones in Ghana

open access: yesInternational Journal of Agronomy, 2020
Aphids (Aphis craccivora Koch) are an important vegetative stage pest of cowpea in Africa. The use of resistant cultivars is among the best management option for this pest, but the success of this strategy is influenced by the stability of the resistant ...
