Changes in barley (Hordeum vulgare L. subsp. vulgare) genetic diversity and structure in Jordan over a period of 31 years
In many regions of the world, the cultivation of landraces is still common, in particular in centres of crop diversity. Significant effort has been put into ex situ conservation of landraces but limited data exist on the ...
Assessment of genetic diversity and yield performance in Jordanian barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) landraces grown under Rainfed conditions
Background: Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is a major cereal crop, which is cultivated under variable environmental conditions and abiotic stresses in marginal areas around the globe. In this study, we evaluated 150 Jordanian ...
Genome Wild Association Studies for New Traits
Two GWAS panels were assembled that represent a sample of Jordanian barley landraces accessions (150 landraces) for drought tolerance and yield and a collection of ICARDA elite material (288 lines) for disease resistance ...
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, ...
