  • Review of Entomological Research on Sweet Potato in Ethiopia
    Discourse Journal of Agriculture and Food Sciences www.resjournals.org/JAFS Vol. 1(5), pp. 83-92, May 2013 Review of Entomological Research on Sweet Potato in Ethiopia Ermias Shonga, Mesele Gemu, Tesfaye Tadesse and Elias Urage Awassa Agricultural Research Centre, Southern Agricultural Research Institute/SARI,P. O. Box 06. Awassa, SNNPR Email : [email protected] Abstract: Sweet potato is one of the most widely grown root crops in SSA, it is particularly important in countries surrounding the Great Lakes in Eastern and Central Africa, in Angola, Madagascar, Malawi and Mozambique in Southern Africa, Nigeria in West Africa and China being the largest producer worldwide. In Africa, it is grown predominantly in small plots by poorer farmers, and hence known as the “poor man’s food.” However it is among well known and established crops in Southern, Eastern and South western parts of Ethiopia. It is produced annually on over 53 thousand hectares of land with total production over 4,240 tons and average productivity of 8.0 tons per hectare. The production and productivity of the crop is extremely low as compared to other African and Asian countries where it gives more than 18t/ha. The lower productivity of sweet potato is mainly due to the existence of common, major, minor and sporadic insect pests. Sweet potato weevil is known as the most pit fall for production and productivity of the crop followed by viral diseases in the country. In addition, sweet potato butter fly is the most devastating pest in major sweet potato growing zones in the country but its occurrence is sporadic based on agro-ecological condition.

  • Evaluation of the Performance of Improved Sweet Potato (Ipomoea Batatas L
    Vol. 8(1), pp. 48-53, January 2014 DOI: 10.5897/AJEST2013. 1572 African Journal of Environmental Science and ISSN 1996-0786 © 2014 Academic Journals http://www.academicjournals.org/AJEST Technology Full Length Research Paper Evaluation of the performance of improved sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L. LAM) varieties in Bayelsa State, Nigeria C. Wariboko* and I. A. Ogidi Department of Crop Production Technology, Niger Delta University, Bayelsa State, Nigeria. Accepted 11 December, 2013 This study was conducted using randomized complete block design with three replications each in two locations (Amassoma Wilberforce Island and Yenagoa, Bayelsa State) to evaluate the performance of improved sweet potato varieties (Ex-Igbariam, TIS 8164, 199004-2 and TIS 87/0087 including Kukunduku local) from March to June 2010. There were significant differences among varieties at both locations and across locations but locations and location x variety interaction were non-significant for sweet potato root yields. Ex-Igbariam and TIS 87/0087 had higher fresh root yields of 7.39 and 4.17 t ha-1, respectively, than others across locations. Regarding trailing characteristic (soil surface cover), too, varieties were significantly different at both locations and across locations but location and location x variety interaction were non-significant with Ex-Igbariam and TIS 87/0087 having best soil surface cover, and consequently, best weed suppressants. There was incidence of diseases but that of insects was low. For fresh root phenotypic characteristics, Ex-Igbariam and 199004-2 had yellow flesh, indicative of the presence of vitamin A precursor. Since Ex-Igbariam, TIS 87/0087 and a few others showed real promise in yield and carotene content, carrying out a multi-locational trial would, hopefully, enable selection of high - yielding varieties for commercial production to improve farmers’ yields and income in the different agro-ecological zones of Bayelsa State.

  • The Isolation, Genetic Characterisation And
    The isolation, genetic characterisation and biological activity of a South African Phthorimaea operculella granulovirus (PhopGV-SA) for the control of the Potato Tuber Moth, Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller) A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE At RHODES UNIVERSITY By MICHAEL DAVID JUKES February 2015 i Abstract The potato tuber moth, Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller), is a major pest of potato crops worldwide causing significant damage to both field and stored tubers. The current control method in South Africa involves chemical insecticides, however, there is growing concern on the health and environmental risks of their use. The development of novel biopesticide based control methods may offer a potential solution for the future of insecticides. In this study a baculovirus was successfully isolated from a laboratory population of P. operculella. Transmission electron micrographs revealed granulovirus-like particles. DNA was extracted from recovered occlusion bodies and used for the PCR amplification of the lef-8, lef- 9, granulin and egt genes. Sequence data was obtained and submitted to BLAST identifying the virus as a South African isolate of Phthorimaea operculella granulovirus (PhopGV-SA). Phylogenetic analysis of the lef-8, lef-9 and granulin amino acid sequences grouped the South African isolate with PhopGV-1346. Comparison of egt sequence data identified PhopGV-SA as a type II egt gene. A phylogenetic analysis of egt amino acid sequences grouped all type II genes, including PhopGV-SA, into a separate clade from types I, III, IV and V. These findings suggest that type II may represent the prototype structure for this gene with the evolution of types I, III and IV a result of large internal deletion events and subsequent divergence.

  • Tecia Solanivora Y Symmetrischema Tangolias
    Caracterización de la actividad amilásica presente en extractos larvarios de dos polillas plagas de la papa: Tecia solanivora y Symmetrischema tangolias Patricia Mora-Criollo, Andrea Rodríguez-Guerra y Carlos A. Soria Laboratorio de Bioquímica, Escuela de Ciencias Biológicas, Pontificia Universidad Católica del Ecuador, Quito, Ecuador [email protected] Recibido: 11, 05, 2013; aceptado: 09, 10, 2013 RESUMEN.- Las polillas Tecia solanivora y Symmetrischema tangolias (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) ocasionan daños significativos a los tubérculos de Solanum tuberosum. El objetivo de este estudio fue aislar y caracterizar bioquímicamente las amilasas presentes en los diferentes estadios larvales de estas polillas. Para efectos comparativos se extrajo las proteínas solubles de estadios larvales criados en el laboratorio para determinar espectrofotométricamente diferencias en la concentración de cada extracto. Se calculó el peso promedio de cada larva: T. solanivora resultó ser más pesada y de ella se obtuvo más proteína soluble en comparación con S. tangolias. La actividad amilásica en los extractos proteicos fue identificada mediante degradación de almidones. Extractos de los estadios IV de ambas polillas, incubados a diferentes intervalos de tiempo, presentaron actividades amilásicas diferentes, aunque resultaron bastante similares cuando se leyeron los resultados de cada extracto tarde a las 72 h. Mediante electroforesis de los extractos proteicos de las larvas de las dos especies, migraron alrededor de 11 bandas proteicas entre 225 y 10 kDa. Entre estas bandas, las amilasas fueron reconocidas en ambas especies y en los 4 estadios como bandas de 50 kDa. La(s) banda(s) probablemente isofórmicas de esta enzima aparecieron muy definidas en los estadios I y II, en contraste con las formas difusas encontradas en los estadios III y IV.
