GCP Product Catalogue

The Product Catalogue is an evolving  compilation of  a diverse array of  products derived from tangible outputs of projects supported in whole or in part by the CGIAR Generation Challenge Programme.  As projects mature, more products are added. Products are listed under the specific project crop or ‘Global’.   Under each crop, you will find diverse types of products, such as  germplasm, markers, genomics resources and informatics applications.  ‘Global’ includes products  applicable to several or all crops and generally includes informatics tools and learning materials. We consider all catalogued products as useful. However, our user base is highly varied and includes upstream as well as downstream plant scientists. Not all products will be of direct interest to breeders. Consequently, a BUL (Breeding Use Level) rating has been provided to indicate the direct usefulness of products to breeders:

Breeding Use Levels
BUL Description
1  Ready to use for breeding
 (I.e. predictive markers, germplasm of acceptable agronomic type containing a well-defined and characterized trait, and etc.).
2  Qualified use for breeding
 (i.e germplasm in which trait genetics have not been well defined or markers that may be informative but not necessarily predictive).
3  Indirectly useful for breeding
 (i.e. genomic resources from which downstream products for breeding are developed and many informatics applications).
4  Not developed for breeding, per se
 (i.e. miscellaneous information as socio-economic reports).

Product Number G7010.03.05
Product Mapping populations for Al tolerance and P efficiency from elite Kenyan germplasm
Crop/Area Maize
Type Germplasm
Description One population consisting of F2:F3 families from crosses of KML 036 x S 396-16-1 maize inbred lines contrasting for P-efficiency. This population has been genotyped with 466 polymorphic SNPs using the KASP (competitive allele specific PCR) genotyping system and are being phenotyped in the field on low P and high P soils for P efficiency in 2014. A second similar F2:F3 mapping populations was made for Al tolerance by crossing the highly Al tolerant maize line derived from the Kenyan landrace 203B-14 crossed with the Kenyan Al sensitive elite line, SCH3. This population was genotyped with more than 500 polymorphic SNPs using the KASP (competitive allele specific PCR) genotyping system and has been being phenotyped for Al tolerance in nutrient solution. The variance analysis for the Al tolerance data revealed a significant genetic variance with low coefficient of variance (8.82%) and high heritability (0.97).
Current Use Identification of lines with QTL for Al and low P tolerance and searches for unique sources of Al tolerance in Kenyan elite germplasm.
