title: Productivity and Land Use Efficiency of Wheat- Lentil Intercropping under Two Tillage Practices

description: To feed the ever-increasing population, increase productivity per unit area is one of the most attractive strategies. Intercropping is considered a promising system for increasing crop productivity and land-use efficiency. A field study was conducted to evaluate the effect of different crop combinations of wheat-lentil on the productivity of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and lentil (Lens culinaris) and land use efficiency under two tillage practices in Minjar district during 2015-2017 cropping seasons. The experiment was carried out using split-plot design with three replications. The treatments consisted of two tillage practices (conventional and minimum tillage) assigned as the main plot and five wheat-lentil intercropping combinations (1:0, 1:1, 2:1, 1:2 and 0:1) assigned as the subplot. The tillage practices and intercropping had significant effect on growth parameters of wheat and lentil. Minimum tillage increased growth parameters for wheat, but reduced growth parameters for lentil. The yield of wheat was non-significantly affected by tillage practices, but the yield of lentil was significantly affected by tillage systems. A higher yield of lentil (1546 kgha- 1) was obtained in conventional tillage as compared to minimum tillage practices. Intercropping combination had a significant effect on both growth and yield parameters of both crops. The highest yield of wheat (2932 and 2982 kgha-1) was recorded in sole wheat (1:0) and 2:1 wheat-lentil combination, while the highest yield of lentil (1575 kgha-1) was obtained in sole lentil (0:1). Among intercropping combinations, 2:1 wheat-lentil gave the highest LER, ATER, and MAI values. Therefore, 2:1 wheat-lentil intercropping combinations were found suitable for higher productivity and production of component crops and the intercropping system of wheat-lentil in any of the combinations found to be more profitable and productive compared to sole wheat and lentil.

title: Evaluation of NPSZn Blended Fertilizer on Yield and Yield Traits of Bread Wheat (Tritcum aestivum L.) on Cambisols and Vertisols in Southern Tigray, Ethiopia

description: A field experiment was carried out in 2017 and 2018 main cropping seasons in Ofla and Emba Alaje Woredas in Tigray Regional State, Ethiopia. The experiment has seven levels of NPSZn (0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, kg ha-1) adjusted for N from urea to the recommended N level (64 kg N ha-1) and the recommended P fertilizers (46 kg P2O5 ha-1). The treatments were also arranged in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications and executed on two farmers fields. Soil samples were collected before planting and analyzed for selected physicochemical properties. As a result, application of different rates of NPSZn blended fertilizer significantly influenced yield and yield components of wheat at both sites. At Ofla, the highest grain and straw yields were obtained from plots that received 200 kg NPSZn ha-1 . At Emba Alaje, the highest grain and straw yields were harvested from the application of 200 kg NPSZn ha-1 and 100 kg NPSZn ha-1, respectively. Application of Zn in the blended fertilizer had no significant effect on grain Zn concentration of bread wheat at both sites. Partial budget analysis revealed that the optimum marginal rate of return was 22.25ETB and 16.06ETB at Emba Alaje and Ofla, respectively. Both biological and economic analysis showed that applications of 200kg NPSZn with 28.6 kg N (62 kg urea) at Ofla and 100 kg NPSZn with 46 kg N (100 kg urea) at Emba Alaje were optimum for wheat production and these rates could be recommended for areas where the rainfall distribution and soil types are similar with the study locations. Further study should be done on effects of NPSZn in grain quality and single nutrient based experiment should be carried out to evaluate the effect of each nutrient in the blended fertilizer for crop production.

title: Evaluation of Different Agricultural Lime Sources for their Agronomic Effectiveness, Yield of Food Barley and Faba Bean and Acid Soil Properties in the Central Highlands of Ethiopia

description: The potentials of lime to restore soil health and fertility of the acidic soils is one of the best options of sustainable soil fertility management practices. However, the liming effects depend on its source, composition, purity, and fineness. The study initiated to evaluate the effectiveness of different lime materials produced in Ethiopia. Lime samples collected from different producing factories and were characterized at Holeta Agricultural Research Centre. Following characterization on station and on-farm experiments were conducted to evaluate crop and soil response for the different lime sources. The treatments comprised of four different lime materials and control laid out in randomized complete block design with three replications. The result showed that all lime sources fulfill the standards of agricultural lime. The result also showed that there were significant differences between and among lime sources on soil properties as well as crop yield but highly significant between the control treatments. This implies that the lime materials can be suitably used nationally to ameliorate soil acidity and increase crop productivity. Thus, the resource-poor farmers dwelling in western, north western, and central highlands who cannot afford to transport the lime sources from far distances can make use of the lime sources near to areas as there is no significant difference.

title: Why Has a Single Rice Cultivar Dominated the Lowland Rice Production Portfolio of Ethiopia for so Long?

description: Rice is becoming an enterprise of choice in the Ethiopian farming system. The Fogera plain accounts for 68% of the area and 71% of the production of rice in the country. This paper attempts to explain why a single cultivar called ‘X-Jigna’ has dominated the lowland rice production portfolio of the Fogera plain in the country for more than 30 years and pinpoints the lessons that these inform to the national rice breeding program. X-Jigna was introduced from North Korea and adopted and recommended by Korean scientists in mid-1980s. Rice adoption study (2016-2017) in the Fogera plain showed more than 81% X-Jigna cultivation. Despite its long time deployment into the production, it has been showing good performance in terms of grain yield, biomass yield with good palatability, good disease reaction, phenotypic acceptability, good tillering capacity, and white caryopsis color. Furthermore, the cultivar has a long and well-exerted panicle, uniform stand, good physical quality, acceptability, and wider utilization. In addition, farmers describe its quality in terms of high flour density ‘wuha yanesal’ and softness stay of the enjera. Generally, farmers describe X-Jigna as a variety that fulfills most of their important traits. The national breeding program developed at least six lowland rice improved varieties for the Fogera plain to replace X-Jigna. However, the replacement rate of the old varieties is quite low as evidenced by the high adoption rate and longtime cultivation of X-Jigna. The breeding program needs to stop by and question why this happened and the journey undergone to come here. One of the critical issues that can be learned from the over years of engagement of the breeding program is that it has followed a trait-based improvement approach to deploy new varieties, which led to the low adoption of new varieties. As a way forward, the breeding program has to be demand-driven and product-oriented.

title: Dataset related to: Shiga Toxin 2 Triggers C3a-Dependent Glomerular and Tubular Injury through Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome

description: The files contain all the dataset included in the manuscript, divided by figure in each tab. <strong>Abstract</strong> Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing <em>Escherichia coli</em> is the predominant offending agent of post-diarrheal hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), a rare disorder of microvascular thrombosis and acute kidney injury possibly leading to long-term renal sequelae. We previously showed that C3a has a critical role in the development of glomerular damage in experimental HUS. Based on the evidence that activation of C3a/C3a receptor (C3aR) signaling induces mitochondrial dysregulation and cell injury, here we investigated whether C3a caused podocyte and tubular injury through induction of mitochondrial dysfunction in a mouse model of HUS. Mice coinjected with Stx2/LPS exhibited glomerular podocyte and tubular C3 deposits and C3aR overexpression associated with cell damage, which were limited by C3aR antagonist treatment. C3a promoted renal injury by affecting mitochondrial wellness as demonstrated by data showing that C3aR blockade reduced mitochondrial ultrastructural abnormalities and preserved mitochondrial mass and energy production. In cultured podocytes and tubular cells, C3a caused altered mitochondrial fragmentation and distribution, and reduced anti-oxidant SOD2 activity. Stx2 potentiated the responsiveness of renal cells to the detrimental effects of C3a through increased C3aR protein expression. These results indicate that C3aR may represent a novel target in Stx-associated HUS for the preservation of renal cell integrity through the maintenance of mitochondrial function.

title: Effects of Concentrate Level on Lactation Performance of Horro Cows Fed Rhodes Grass Hay (RGH) as a Basal Diet at Guduru Animal Production and Research Center, Western Ethiopia

description: An experiment was conducted at Guduru Animal Production and Research Center (GAPRC) of Wollega University to evaluate effects of different levels of formulated concentrate supplementation on milk yield, milk compositions, feed intake and body weight gain of Horro cows. Sixteen early lactating Horro cows with the same body weight and condition were selected from GAPRC. Experimental cows were assigned to four dietary treatments using a randomized complete block design with four replications. Cows that varied in parity were used as blocking factors in the present trial. The treatments used were: RGH +0.5Kg of concentrate (T1), RGH +2Kg of concentrate (T2), RGH + 3Kg of concentrate (T3), and RGH + 4Kg of concentrate (T4). The experiment was conducted for 90 days with an acclimatization period of 15 days. Dry matter and nutrient intakes of cows significantly (p&lt;0.05) varied between treatment groups. Mean dry matter intake was 5.98%. Mean total crude protein, total neutral detergent fiber, total acid detergent fiber, total acid detergent lignin and total organic matter intake (%) were, 0.78, 4.74, 2.26, 1.44, and 4.89 respectively. Total dry matter intake of cows fed on T4 was higher than those cows maintained on dietary T1, T2, and T3. The mean milk yield per cow per day was 3.12 liter. It has increased across the dietary treatment with an increase in the rate of concentrate supplementation. Protein, fat, total solid, solid-not-fat, and Ash composition of milk (%) were, , 3.41, 3.48, 13.37, 9.89, and 0.75 respectively, where milk compositions except for Lactose (5.73%) content had significant difference (P&lt;0.05) among the treatment groups. Milk fat contents of cows fed on T1was higher than those cows maintained on dietary T2, T3 and T4. Except the numerically higher body weight observed for cows receiving T4, initial and final body weights of experimental cows didn’t show variation (P&gt;0.05) with changes in dietary treatments. In general, cows supplemented with 4kg of formulated concentrate had improved feed intake, milk yield and milk nutrient compositions than cows on the remaining dietary treatments. The further study shall be conducted on the productive and economic response of local cows maintained on such diet over successive lactation to evaluate the significance of the study at the field level.

title: Effect of Furrow Method and Mulch on Bulb Yield and Water Productivity of Irrigated Onion under Central Highland Vertisol of Ethiopia

description: The aim of this study was to select the most effective water-saving techniques and improve the water use efficiency of irrigated onions under limited agricultural water availability. The experiment was conducted in split plot design with three types of furrow irrigation methods and mulch types in three replications. The result revealed that different types of furrow method and mulch type are significantly affected (p&lt;0.01) marketable yield of onion. It has been observed that the significantly highest marketable yield (39.5 t/ha) of onion was recorded due to CFI and followed by AFI method (34.3 t/ha). However, the highest WUE (9.7 kg/m3) was obtained due to AFI method when compared with the CFI method of 5.7 kg/m3. Hence, there was 18 to 22% increment of marketable yield and WUE of the onion by applying mulching over the non-mulching condition and also 42% improvement of WUE by using AFI over the conventional furrow method. Therefore, for maximizing the marketable yield of onion under limiting irrigation water resource, irrigation of onion could be done with AFI method with plastic mulch application to minimize evaporation loss and maximize water productivity of onion for similar agro-ecology and soil type.

title: Effect of Phosphate-Solubilizing Bacteria and Fungi, Mineral Phosphate and Vermicompost Application on Major Soil Chemical Characteristics, Mineral Uptake and Growth of Coffee (Coffea arabica L.) Seedlings under Nursery Condition

description: This study was designed to evaluate the efficiency, select the best performing bacteria and fungi isolates for phosphate solublization and yield attributes of coffee seedlings under nursery condition. The study was conducted at Jimma Agricultural Research Center during February to August 2019, in plastic pots. This study was carried out in CRD in three replications per treatments. The experiment has 4 sets where set 1 had the bio-inoculant factors and phosphate factor combined factorially. Set 2 had 3 factors (3PSF, 3PSB and 2 p levels) in factorial combinations. Set 3 has single factor (the 6 inoculants under basal VC (300g/1.5kg soil). Set 4 was a two factor trial: PSF (3 levels) and PSB (3 levels) combined factorially under basal VC. All sets had negative and positive (rec. NP) controls, and set 3 and 4 had sole VC as additional control unit. Bio-inoculant and phosphate combination were significantly responded to all growth attributes. Moreover, co-inoculation of RSCF1.19 with three bacterial isolates (RCHVCB1, RScB1.19, and RMaB2.11) in combination with phosphate led to significantly higher tested growth parameters. Similar increase in growth attributes were observed in both single and dual inoculation due to VC used when compared with both positive and negative control. Non-significant but higher NPK-uptake were observed in a combination of bio-inoculants and phosphate fertilizer compared to the positive and negative control. The combination of VC with RSCF1.19 and RLVCF2 fungal isolates can be recommended as bio-inoculants for solublizing inorganic phosphate and to obtain vigor and healthier coffee seedlings in south west soil of Ethiopia for coffee Arabica cultivation.

title: Evaluation of Oats (Avena sativa) Genotypes for Seed Yield and Yield Components in the Highlands of Gamo, Southern Ethiopia

description: The field experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications to evaluate the seed yield performance of fourteen oat varieties at Ezo Ote during the main cropping seasons of 2016 and 2017. Varieties in the trial were ILRI-5431A, ILRI-5444A, ILRI-5490A, ILRI-5499A, ILRI-5526A, ILRI-5527A, ILRI-15152A, ILRI-15153A, ILRI-16101A, CI-8233, CI-2291, CI-8251, CI-2252 and CI-80AB2806. Data was recorded for days to flowering (DTF 50%), plant height, leaf number per plant, tiller number per plant, panicle length, seed per spike, 1000 seed weight, biomass yield, seed yield and harvest index. The varieties showed significant variations in yield and yield related parameters that ILRI-15153A followed by CI-8251 and CI-8233 varieties of oats had a higher number of leaves per plant, number of tillers per plant, plant height and biomass yield. CI-8233 followed by ILRI-5527A, CI-8251 and ILRI-5526A varieties had higher seed yield, optimum spike number, thousand seed weight and harvest index. Oats seed yield positively correlated with tiller number per plant, spike number, thousand seed weight and harvest index whereas biomass yield positively correlated with the days to flowering, plant height, panicle length and seeds per spike. Hence, ILRI-15153A, CI-8233 and CI-8251 for biomass yield whereas CI-8233, ILRI-5527A, CI-8251 and ILRI-5526A genotypes could be recommended for seed yield, in Ezo Ote and similar agro-ecology.

title: Integrated Control of the White Mango Scale Through Tree Management and Soil Drenching with a Systemic Insecticide in Western Ethiopia

description: The white mango scale insect, Aulacaspis tubercularis (Hemiptera: Diaspididae) is a recent threat to mango production in Ethiopia which was introduced in 2010. It has spread to all mango producing areas of the country within a short period of time reducing the production and quality of mangos. Control measures taken against the white mango scale include use of chemical insecticides, cultural practices and biological control using parasitoids and predators. Field experiments were conducted in western Ethiopia in two locations for two consecutive years in 2018 and 2019 to evaluate the efficacy of integrated application of a systemic soil drenching pesticide and tree management (pruning) for the control of the white mango scale. Randomized complete block designs with three replications were used for the experiments. The total number of WMS life stages varied significantly among the different treatments throughout the two years and application seasons at both Uke and Bako sites. At Uke Thiamethoxam 25% WG at 18g/tree + pruning treated trees showed the minimum mean number of WMS life stages per leaf (42.23) and (27.83) followed by Thiamethoxam 25% WG at 12g/tree + pruning treated trees (86.83) and (61.0) in the first and second application seasons respectively. Control trees showed highest (334.33) and (591.29) number of WMS life stages in the first and second application seasons respectively. Similar trends were observed at Bako. The study has shown that the integrated use of the systemic soil drenching insecticide and tree management can significantly reduce the WMS life stages on infested mango trees indicating that it is a promising approach to the control of the WMS. Integration of these approach with other management components such as biological control agents and the effect of the systemic insecticide on the content of the edible fruit deserves further study
