Dietary selenium intake among Ethiopian children in areas known for selenium spatial variability (2023)
Journal Article
Hailu, K., Joy, E. J., Ferguson, E. L., Bailey, E. H., Wilson, L., Davis, K., …Gashu, D. (2023). Dietary selenium intake among Ethiopian children in areas known for selenium spatial variability. Frontiers in Nutrition, 10, Article 1250002. https://doi.org/10.3389/fnut.2023.1250002

Introduction: There is spatial variability of selenium (Se) in soil and crops in Ethiopia. We assessed the Se content of food items, breast milk and urine, among infants in Ethiopia from two areas with contrasting Se concentrations in soils. Metho...

Journal Article
Manzeke-Kangara, M. G., Amede, T., Bailey, E. H., Wilson, L., Mossa, A. W., Tirfessa, D., …Gameda, S. (2023). Landscape and Micronutrient Fertilizer Effect on Agro-Fortified Wheat and Teff Grain Nutrient Concentration in Western Amhara. Agronomy, 13(10), Article 2598. https://doi.org/10.3390/agronomy13102598

Agronomic biofortification, encompassing the use of mineral and organic nutrient resources which improve micronutrient concentrations in staple crops is a potential strategy to promote the production of and access to micronutrient-dense foods at the...

Genotypic Response of Finger Millet to Zinc and Iron Agronomic Biofortification, Location and Slope Position towards Yield (2023)
Journal Article
Teklu, D., Gashu, D., Joy, E. J., Lark, R. M., Bailey, E. H., Wilson, L., …Broadley, M. R. (2023). Genotypic Response of Finger Millet to Zinc and Iron Agronomic Biofortification, Location and Slope Position towards Yield. Agronomy, 13(6), Article 1452. https://doi.org/10.3390/agronomy13061452

The present study aimed to investigate the influence of genotypic differences on responses to zinc and iron agronomic biofortification among yields of finger millet. A field experiment was conducted over two seasons in farmers’ fields in Ethiopia (20...

Impact of zinc and iron agronomic biofortification on grain mineral concentration of finger millet varieties as affected by location and slope (2023)
Journal Article
Teklu, D., Gashu, D., Joy, E. J. M., Lark, R. M., Bailey, E. H., Wilson, L., …Broadley, M. R. (2023). Impact of zinc and iron agronomic biofortification on grain mineral concentration of finger millet varieties as affected by location and slope. Frontiers in Nutrition, 10, Article 1159833. https://doi.org/10.3389/fnut.2023.1159833

Background: Food crop micronutrient concentrations can be enhanced through agronomic biofortification, with the potential to reduce micronutrient deficiencies among rural population if they have access to fertilizers. Here we reported the impact of a... Read More about Impact of zinc and iron agronomic biofortification on grain mineral concentration of finger millet varieties as affected by location and slope.
