    The Potential of DNA Barcode-Based Delineation Using Seven Putative Candidate Loci of the Plastid Region in Inferring Molecular Diversity of Cowpea at Sub-Species Level. 

    Okoth, Patrick; Muoma, John; Emmanuel, Mulaya; Clabe, Wekesa; Omayio, Dennis O; Angienda, Paul O (American Journal of Molecular Biology, 2016-10)
    The novelty and suitability of the mitochondrial gene CO1 in DNA barcoding as a reliable identification tool in animal species are undisputed. This is attributed to its standardized sequencing segment of the mitochondrial ...

    Agronomic effectiveness of water hyacinth-based composts 

    mukama, Dennis Beesiga; Katusabe, Alice Amoding; Tumuhairwe, John Baptist; Muoma, John; Maingi, John M.; Ombori, Omwoyo; Nakanwagi, Josephine; Mukaminega, Dative (African Journal of Agricultural Research, 2018-09)
    Because water hyacinth-based compost contains substantial amounts of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) its application can boost crop production. We evaluated the agronomic performance of water hyacinth - based ...

    Genetic diversity of symbiotic bacteria nodulating common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) in western Kenya 

    Kawaka, Fanuel; Makonde, Huxley; Dida, Mathews; Opala, Peter; Ombori, Omwoyo; Maingi, John; Muoma, John (Plos One, 2018-11-15)
    Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) in legumes plays a critical role in improving soil fertility. Despite this vital role, there is limited information on the genetic diversity and BNF of bacteria nodulating common bean ...

    Molecular Footprint of Kenya’s Gene Bank Repositories Based on the <i>cp</i>-Genome Signatures 

    Patrick, Okoth; Muoma, John; Dennis, Omayio; Mustafa, Barasa; Paul, Angienda (American Journal of Molecular Biology, 2018-10)
    While the mutational processes that subsume biological diversity can be revealed in great detail through phylogenetic inferencing using plastid markers, few studies document their use. Accurate phylogenic inference can ...

    Prevalence of human immunodeficiency virus-1 drug-resistant mutations among adults on first- and second-line antiretroviral therapy in a resource-limited health facility in Busia County, Kenya 

    Makwaga, Olipher; Adhiambo, Maureen; Mulama, David Hughes; Muoma, John; Adungo, Ferdinard; Wanjiku, Humphrey; Ongaya, Asiko; Maitha, Geoffrey Mutisya; Mwau, Matilu (Pan African Medical Journal, 2020-12)
    Introduction: in Kenya, about 1.5 million people are living with the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). Antiretroviral therapy aids in viral suppression. However, drug-resistance threaten the gains of the HIV infection ...

    Genetic Characterization of Rhizosphere Bacteria that Inhabit Common Bean Nodules in Western Kenya Soils 

    Wekesa, Clabe; Muoma, John; Ombori, Omwoyo; Maingi, John; Okun, Daniel; Juma, Kelvin Kisaka; Indakwa, Emily Nakhumicha Wamalwa; Kollenberg, Mario; Mauti, Eliakim (Applied Microbiology: open access, 2017-03)
    Background: With the increasing world population, there is increasing demand for food. This has led to overuse of agricultural farms causing reduced soil fertility and accumulation of phytopathogens. Inorganic fertilizers ...

    In vitro Regeneration by Indirect Organogenesis of Selected Kenyan Maize Genotypes using Shoot Apices 

    Muoma, John; G, Muluvi; J, Machuka (Biotechnology, 2008-09)
    The study reports a reliable and reproducible regeneration system of two open pollinated varieties-OPV`s (Katumani KAT and dry land cultivar DLC1), a hybrid (DH01) and an inbred line (TL08) using shoot apices as explants ...

    Signal Transduction One of the Current Molecular Approaches in the Management of Drought Stress in the Sub-Saharan Region 

    Muoma, John; O, Ombori; M, Jesse (Biotechnology, 2010-11)
    Drought affects maize production in Africa leading to up to 70% crop loss and in certain cases total crop loss. Several breeding interventions have been attempted with little success. Thus alternative complementation ...

    Next Generation sequencing platforms for potato virus hunting , survillece and discovery 

    Alinda, Alfred; Onamu, Rose; Read, David; Genevieve, Thompsons; Muoma, John (African Journal of Bacteriology, 2020-07)
    Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a key alternative to maize crop in Kenya. However, pests and diseases affect the yields. Information on Irish potato virology is continually patchy. Viral disease dynamics require constant ...

    Distribution and phenotypic characteristics of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) nodulating bacteria in diverse soils. 

    Kawaka, Fanuel; Muoma, John (Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica, Section B - Soil & Plant Science, 2020-08-19)
    Bacteria were isolated from the root nodules using common bean as a trap host. Growth and morphological characteristics of the bacterial isolates were described on yeast extract mannitol mineral salts agar and broth media. ...
