Influence of Tithonia diversifolia and cattle manures on the growth and yield of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) by Ehiokhilen Eifediyi, Henry Ahamefule, Felix Ogedegbe, Taiwo Agbede, Isiaka Kareem, Appiah Ajayi

“…Purpose Much cattle manure and Tithonia are in abundance in the Guinea savanna of Nigeria where sesame has been found to do well. The cost of inorganic fertilizer is going beyond the reach of the average sesame farmer; the need therefore arises to synthesize farming practices that incorporate the rich organic materials locally available as a substitute for inorganic fertilizer for sustainable food production.Methods A study was conducted at the Teaching and Research Farm, University of Ilorin, Nigeria during the 2018 and 2019 cropping seasons, to evaluate the performance of sesame using T. diversifolia and cattle manures.  …”

Genome-wide association scan and candidate gene analysis for seed coat color in sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) by Mohammed Elsafy, Wafa Badawi, Ahmed Ibrahim, Elamin Hafiz Baillo, Prabin Bajgain, Tilal Sayed Abdelhalim, Mahbubjon Rahmatov

“…IntroductionSeed coat color in sesame is a crucial trait for breeding programs as it is closely associated with important characteristics such as oil content, protein levels, and disease resistance, which directly influence seed quality and market value.MethodsThis study investigates the genetic basis of seed coat color in 200 Sudanese sesame genotypes grown for two consecutive years through comprehensive phenotyping, genomic diversity analysis, genome-wide association studies (GWAS), and candidate gene discovery.Results and discussionPhenotypic analysis across two growing seasons revealed high heritability and significant correlations among color parameters (L*, a*, and b*), indicating strong genetic control over seed coat color. …”

Short-Term Response of Soil Organic Carbon Indices to Different Farming Strategies and Crop Rotation Systems in a Semiarid Warm Region by Aram Gorooei, Amir Aynehband, Dominik Behrend, Sabine J. Seidel, Amit Kumar Srivastava, Afrasyab Rahnama, Thomas Gaiser

“…The crop rotation systems were fallow-wheat (F-W), corn-wheat (C-W), sesame-wheat (S-W), and mung bean-wheat (B-W). No statistically significant difference was observed between the different farming strategies and rotation systems with respect to LI after two years of the experiment. …”
