    Abstract: With the aim of describing variance in morphological features of bread wheat genotypes using frequency and Shannon-Weaver diversity index, the current study was conducted on forty-nine genotypes of bread wheat, including two released varieties (Wane & Lemu). The experiment was laid out in a 7x7 simple lattice designs. White glumes was the most freq... Show More

    Abstract: Ethiopia, which is the origin and place of many varieties of Arabica coffee, is lucky in this regard. Although the genetic diversity of the coffee population provides a good opportunity for improvement, the lack of improved hybrids is a major problem. Arabica coffee (Coffea arabica L.) is the main coffee species in world coffee production, accounti... Show More

    Abstract: The growth and output of coffee are significantly hampered by drought. To lessen the effects of climate change on coffee production, it is crucial to choose genotypes of Arabica coffee that are resistant to drought. The goal of the study was to select genotypes of Wellega coffee that are drought-tolerant at the Haru Agricultural Research Sub-Center... Show More
