Despite substantial diversity in morphology, genetics, agronomy and utilization across its range, nutritional characteristics have only been reported in relatively few landraces. Here, we survey nutritional composition in 22 landraces from three enset growing...Tamrat, Solomon ; Borrell, James S. ; Biswas, Manosh K. ; Gashu, Dawd ; Wondimu, Tigist …
