Fluorescent SSR Markers and Capillary Electrophoresis Reveal Significant Genetic Diversity in Naturalized Pumpkin Accessions in Kenya
Kiramana, J. K. 1; Isutsa, D. K. 1,2; Nyende, A. B. 3 (2017)This study was undertaken as a preliminary step in determining genetic diversity of naturalized pumpkins in Kenya. It entailed allelic patterns, frequency, inbreeding coefficient, molecular variance, cluster and ... -
Food and income provision influence production of pumpkins in Kakamega and Nyeri in Kenya
Kiramana, J. K. 1; Isutsa, D. K. 1,2 (2018)Pumpkin is an emerging important fruit-vegetable, although its potential remains unexploited in Kenya. This study aimed at enhancing conservation, preservation and production of naturalized pumpkins through characterisation ... -
Genetic diversity of pumpkin accessions in Kenya revealed using morphological characters, diversity index, CATPCA and factor analysis
Kiramana, J. K. 1; Isutsa, D. K. 1,2 (2018-02)Pumpkin is one of the most morphologically variable genera in the entire plant kingdom. In Kenya, its genetic diversity is undocumented and distribution is haphazard. An expedition was done in Kakamega and Nyeri regions ...
