Following on from work by Seedmark PlantTech in 2008, there is investigation in using alternative crops in medium to high rainfall zones. It was determined that more data needed to be collected to est
Adaptive radiation is a widely recognized pattern of evolution wherein substantial phenotypic change accompanies rapid speciation. Adaptive radiation may be triggered by environmental opportunities re

Most studies of adaptive radiation in animals focus on resource competition as the primary driver of trait divergence. The roles of other ecological interactions in shaping divergent phenotypes during
Background: Malawi's agricultural activities rely heavily on rainfall. Rain signals the start of a distribution of rain that is unsuitable for plant development, whereas lighting marks the end of rain
