Micronutrient composition and microbial community analysis across diverse landraces of the Ethiopian orphan crop enset
Enset (Ensete ventricosum) is a major starch staple and food security crop for 20 million people. 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 …

Modelling potential range expansion of an underutilised food security crop in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Despite substantial growth in global agricultural production, food and nutritional insecurity is rising in Sub-Saharan Africa. Identification of underutilised indigenous crops with useful food security traits may provide part of the solution. Enset (Ensete ventricosum) is a perennial banana relative with cultivation restricted to southwestern Ethiopia, where high productivity and...
