Scenario on Production, Processing, and Utilization of Grasspea ( L.) in Agromarginal Geographies and Its Future Prospects.

Grasspeas are environmentally successful and robust legumes with major traits of interest for food and nutrition security. It is a critical crop in areas prone to drought, overmoisture stress, and famine, hence, regarded as an "insurance crop" because of its inherent resilience of climatic calamities. The current status and prospects of grasspea, as well as various breeding and food processing approaches to improve this crop for integration in diverse and sustainable agrifood systems, are discussed in this review.

Participatory variety evaluation and selection of chickpea ( L.) varieties; an underpinning to novel technology uptake in northwestern Ethiopia.

The productivity and production of chickpeas can be improved by using access-improved varieties that are suitable for the specific agroecology. However, the foundation for adopting new technology is participatory variety selection (PVS). Therefore, this study aimed to identify the best adaptively improved chickpea varieties in northwestern Ethiopia based on the preferences of farmers in Adet and Fogera Districts.

Carriage of antimicrobial-resistant Enterobacterales among pregnant women and newborns in Amhara, Ethiopia.

Objectives: Infections are one of the most common causes of neonatal mortality, and maternal colonization has been associated with neonatal infection. In this study, we sought to quantify carriage prevalence of extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase (ESBL) -producing and carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) among pregnant women and their neonates and to characterize risk factors for carriage in rural Amhara, Ethiopia.

Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study nested in the Birhan field site.

Teenage pregnancy matters in refugee setup: early pregnancy among adolescent girls in Kule refugee camp, Gambella, Ethiopia.

Background: An estimated 21 million adolescent girls become pregnant with nearly half of these pregnancies being unintended, and more than half end in unsafe abortion in low and middle-income countries every year. Teenage pregnancy causes serious health, social, and economic consequences around the globe. Despite it is a common problem in the whole community it is more devastating when this occurs in a refugee setup.

Hiding in plain sight: Genome-wide recombination and a dynamic accessory genome drive diversity in f.sp. .

Understanding the origins of variation in agricultural pathogens is of fundamental interest and practical importance, especially for diseases that threaten food security. is among the most important of soil-borne pathogens, with a global distribution and an extensive host range. The pathogen is considered to be asexual, with horizontal transfer of chromosomes providing an analog of assortment by meiotic recombination.
