CONCLUSION 1/2
There was intense variability in agro-morphological characters studied among all 29 accessions of okra.
The most diverse and distantly related accessions with outstanding traits were Mamolega, Wune mana
and Cs-Legon and could be potential sources of variability for future breeding work.
Moderate to strong association exists between pairs of quantitative yield traits in the okra landraces
studied.
The output of the PCA revealed that different characters contributed differently to the total variation.
The ISSR primers yielded low level of polymorphism among the 29 accessions; 25 accessions however,
were identified as possible duplicates
Indiana, Yeji-Local, Asante type II and Atomic were detected as distinct unique genotypes and could be
unique sources of genes for improvement programmes.
17/10/2016 CASD THESIS COMMITTEE 10

RECOMMENDATIONS
Topmost accessions with desirable qualities (Indiana, Yeji-Local, Asante type II and Atomic) could be utilised for developing
commercial variety for the export market.
Collections should be extended to other regions and base collections in the genebank of PGRRI at Bunso, should be
thoroughly characterised and for further conservation
Genes linked to agronomically important traits in okra should be genetically mapped through Quantitative Traits Loci (QTLs)
Okra genome should be sequenced to develop SSRs
screening for secondary metabolites (HPLC, TLC, LCMS ) should be done
Protein, antioxidants, TFC, TPC of leaves, crude fibre, total carbohydrate, other nutritional constituents (elemental, vitamins
etc) in both pods and leaves should be studied.

This document provides a thesis proposal for integrating Philadelphia's urban agriculture initiatives. It begins with an overview of the evolution of the global food system and opportunities for local food movements. The proposal aims to address the lack of collaboration among food-focused organizations in Philadelphia through stakeholder engagement and design tools. Key players include non-profits, for-profits, and municipal departments. The design process will test Malcolm Gladwell's "tipping point" framework to create a social epidemic of urban agriculture. Methods include stakeholder interviews, forums, and participatory design to develop an integrative plan. The goal is a cohesive framework for collaborative progress among all stakeholders.

Scafa_Final_THESISStephanie Scafa

This thesis examines factors that contribute to successful and sustainable urban agriculture projects in Eugene, Oregon through 19 interviews with local gardening experts. The thesis finds that each element needed to establish and maintain gardens, such as planning, funding, and volunteer recruitment, can be seen as a potential barrier. However, gardens that overcome multiple barriers through diverse partnerships and productive use of space over time are deemed successful. The results justify Eugene's new Urban Agriculture Program by showing the program aims to remove barriers to growing food locally.

Walker 2013 - Growing ideologySamuel Walker

This thesis examines urban agriculture in Vancouver, BC and Detroit, MI through quantitative and qualitative methods. Chapter 1 details the author's approach to quantifying the urban foodscape through cluster analysis, multidimensional scaling, and local indicators of spatial association using census and food source data. Chapter 2 presents results of these analyses for Vancouver and Detroit individually and together. Chapter 3 is an interlude. Chapter 4 situates urban agriculture within political ecology and sustainability frameworks and provides histories of agriculture in each city. Chapter 5 presents vignettes of individual urban farms/gardens in both cities and relates them to theories of political change. The conclusion summarizes key findings and limitations and discusses future research avenues.

Food/Agtech An Investment ThesisMatthew Bedick

This document outlines problems with the current agricultural model and opportunities in food and agriculture investing. The current model relies on monocultures that reduce biodiversity and soil and water are being consumed unsustainably. Several subsectors in food and agriculture tech are highlighted as areas for investment, including alternative proteins, smart equipment, decision support tools, drones and robotics, and waste reduction. Examples are given of startups like Ripple Foods, Amber Agriculture, and Granular that are demonstrating proof of concepts in these subsectors. The size of the agriculture industry and need for sustainability presents a large opportunity for technology to address problems with the current system.

Agro tourism final reportRoxanne Greenidge-Waithe

This document provides an inventory report on agro-tourism linkages and resources in Barbados. It defines agro-tourism as any activity, enterprise or business that links agriculture with tourism products, services and experiences. The report identifies six categories of agro-tourism in Barbados: agro-trade; farm-based and agro-ecotourism; community tourism; health and wellness tourism; culinary tourism; and agro-heritage tourism. It summarizes previous studies on agro-tourism in Barbados and describes the inventory process, which involved identifying agencies, conducting surveys, and selecting a cross-section of businesses representing the six categories.

This document describes the CarrAgheen Molecular Marker Database (CaMM-Db), a comprehensive database of molecular markers for the red seaweed Chondrus crispus (carragheen). The database contains over 18,000 microsatellites and 12,000 SNPs identified from carragheen genomic sequences. CaMM-Db provides information on different microsatellite types and properties. It also integrates with primer design software to facilitate wet lab experiments. As the first database of its kind for carragheen, CaMM-Db is expected to be a valuable resource for genetic research on carragheen and other red seaweeds.

The document summarizes a seminar presentation on evaluating the germplasm of hot pepper in polyhouses under West Bengal conditions. It discusses the objectives, which were to evaluate different genotypes for growth parameters and yield and identify selection indices. It describes the materials and methods used, including the 12 genotypes tested, experimental design, cultural practices, and observations made. It also reviews literature on previous research that identified various traits for selection in hot pepper breeding like fruit yield and weight. The results found variability among genotypes for qualitative traits like plant growth and fruit characteristics. It also reported data on quantitative traits and statistical analysis of the genotypes that identified traits with high heritability suitable for selection and improvement of hot pepper.

It provides details on their properties, advantages, disadvantages and applications for gene mapping and quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis. Examples of studies using F2 and backcross populations for mapping parthenocarpy and Fusarium resistance QTLs in eggplant are also summarized.

Monomorphic Markers are ...Jameel Khan

This study aimed to demonstrate that monomorphic molecular markers can contain useful genetic information. The researchers analyzed 20 rice genotypes with varying zinc content in grains, culms, and roots. They designed markers for genes related to zinc transport and found two were polymorphic by agarose gel electrophoresis. However, sequencing revealed nucleotide variations in four purportedly monomorphic markers as well. Single-marker analysis showed some of these nucleotide variations were significantly associated with zinc content traits. Specifically, variations in the monomorphic marker OsZIP5b correlated with grain zinc. This suggests monomorphic markers should not be excluded from studies as they may still provide informative genetic data.
