R. Br.] and sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] populations or cultivars with specific adaptation to different production environments in Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso. It consists of two sub-projects dealing with specific targets: (1) Dynamic genepool management and farmer- participatory recurrent population improvement of sorghum and pearl millet; and (2) development of improved sorghum cultivars with high phosphorus (P) efficiency and adaptation to low soil fertility using innovative screening, hereafter abbreviated as “P efficiency in sorghum.” 2013 2014-06-11T15:38:55Z 2014-06-11T15:38:55Z Case Study https://hdl.handle.net/10568/36047 https://hdl.handle.net/10568/33719 en http://mcknight.ccrp.cornell.edu/program_docs/project_documents/WAF/WAF_06-014/06-014_sorghum_yr2_07-08_vweb.pdf Open Access CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security
