Breeding and genomics status in faba bean (Vicia faba)
Faba bean is an important legume crop because of its high‐yield potential and nutrition‐dense grains. There have been significant achievements in faba bean improvement in the last four decades, which led to the doubling ...

Advancement report Season 2019-2020 : Dissemination of Interspecific ICARDA Varieties and Elites through Participatory Research
During the season 2019-2020, DIIVA trials of durum wheat, barley and lentil were planted across stations at: Marchouch, Annoceur, Sidi El Aidi, Tessaout and Jemaa Shaim. Same set of durum wheat and lentil was also planted ...
Genomics-assisted lentil breeding: Current status and futurestrategies
Genomics-assisted breeding has become a powerful tool to develop high-yielding climate-resilient varieties for adaptation to adverse environmental conditions such as heat and drought stresses. Previously, efforts have been ...
Wild Lathyrus species as a great source of resistance forintrogression into cultivated grass pea (Lathyrus sativus L.)against broomrape weeds (Orobanche crenata Forsk. andOrobanche foetida Poir .)
Broomrape weeds (Orobanche spp.) are root holoparasitic plants that cause serious damage to a range of legume crops in the Mediterranean and sub‐Saharan African regions. Grain yield of cultivated species of grass pea ...
Crop breeding for the development of climate resilient crops: Approaches at ICARDA
Crop production has been challenged by abiotic and biotic constraints since its inception. However, the magnitude and intensity of these stresses are increasing dramatically due to climate change causing recurrent droughts, ...
