Determining the optimal inoculant rate to maximize soybean productivity in the Guinea Savanna agro-ecological zone of Ghana

Scientific Reports
Soybean productivity in sub-Saharan Africa is often constrained by low soil fertility and limited biological nitrogen fixation (BNF). This study evaluated the effects of different rhizobial inoculant rates (0, 5, 7.5, 10, and 12.5 g kg−1 seed) on growth,

Dynamics of Sudanian savanna-woodland ecosystem in response to disturbances [PDF]

, 2007
Grazing, fire and selective tree cutting are major disturbances shaping species diversity and productivity in savanna-woodland ecosystems. Their effects, however, are highly variable and poorly understood.

Are there morpho‐acoustic patterns of adaptation in nonhuman primate ears? Testing the role of ecology and habitat in shaping ear morphology and function

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Analysis of the variation in the bony structures of the inner and middle ear provides critical insights into functional morphology, as well as adaptive morphology across primates. In this study, we investigated whether ear morphology patterns are related to the ecological characteristics of species and their habitats to test two acoustic ...

Growth, Nodulation, and Yield Responses of Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) as Influenced by Combined Application of Rhizobium Inoculant and Phosphorus in the Guinea Savanna Zone of Ghana

International Journal of Agronomy, 2020
Groundnut yields obtained by farmers in northern Ghana are generally low due to low soil fertility resulting from continuous cropping coupled with low use of external inputs.

Improved storage technique and management of aflatoxin in peanut production: Evidence from Northern Ghana

Scientific African, 2020
Peanut production contributes to food security in northern Ghana due to its ability to tolerate drought and survive on marginal lands. This notwithstanding, poor handling along the value chain favors aflatoxin contamination, a threat to human and animal ...

Early Pliocene Varanus (Squamata, Varanidae) remains from Megalo Emvolon, Thessaloniki, Greece

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
The article describes new cranial and postcranial varanid material from Megalo Emvolon Lower Pliocene vertebrate fossil site near Thessaloniki. The fossils, likely representing a single individual, are referred to Varanus cf. marathonensis. Abstract This study describes new fossil varanid material from a recently discovered fossil spot (MVL site) at ...

Browsing in a heterogeneons savanna

Ecography, 2000
Large herbivores generally depend on and interact with a food resource that is heterogeneous at different spatial scales. Plants allocate resources to rapid growth or to defence mechanisms depending on the availability of resources relative to loss of resources from herbivory. Herbivores select food and feeding habitats in order to maximize intake rate
