    Abstract: Drug designing is a crucial step in the exploration of novel drugs which requires potent methodologies. One of such methodologies is Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship (QSAR) which is a widely used statistical tool that correlates the structure of a molecule to a biological activity as a function of molecular descriptors, thereby, playing...

    Abstract: Faba bean is the leading in area coverage and total production of pulses in Ethiopia. However, soil acidity becomes the major production limiting factor of faba bean in the highlands of Ethiopia. Information on genetic variability and heritability of faba bean genotypes on different traits under soil acidity stress is scanty. Thus, this study was c... Show More
