International Winter Wheat Improvement Program: serving global breeding community
International Winter Wheat Improvement Program (www.iwwip.org) was established in 1986 as a cooperative project between the Government of Turkey and CIMMYT. The main objective was development of winter and facultative wheat ...
Seed Info No. 53
Seed Info aims to stimulate information exchange and regular communication among seed staff in the Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region and beyond. Its purpose is to help strengthen national seed programs ...
Biomass yield and feeding value of rye, triticale, and wheat straw produced under a dual-purpose management system
Dual-purpose management of winter cereals for grazing and grain production provides highly nutritive forage for ruminants in the spring and may positively affect straw feeding value. A 2-yr study investigated the effect ...
Genome-wide association study for agronomic and physiological traits in spring wheat evaluated in a range of heat prone environments
We undertook large-scale genetic analysis to determine marker-trait associations (MTAs) underlying agronomic and physiological performance in spring wheat using genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Field trials were ...
Genetic gains in wheat in Turkey: winter wheat for dryland conditions
Wheat breeders in Turkey have been developing new varieties since the 1920s, but few studies have evaluated the rates of genetic improvement. This study determined wheat genetic gains by evaluating 22 winter/facultative ...
High-yielding winter synthetic hexaploid wheats resistant to multiple diseases and pests
Development of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum) synthetics started at CIMMYT-Mexico in 2004, when winter durum wheat (Triticum turgidum) germplasm from Ukraine and Romania was crossed with Aegilops tauschii accessions from ...
Adaptation and Stability Analysis of ICARDA Durum Wheat Elites across 18 Countries
Durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) is the 10th most important crop in the world, and its cultivation occurs on a vast array of international agroenvironments. However, its wide international adaptation is only marginally ...
Impacts of Improved Supplemental Irrigation on Farm Income, Productive Efficiency and Risk Management in Dry Areas
This paper provides empirical evidence that improved supplemental irrigation
(ISI) can be justified on both environmental and economic grounds. Results
of a stochastic frontier model which explicitly and simultaneously ...
Türkiye’de Yerel Buğday Popülasyonlarının Durumu ve Yerel Buğday Üreten Üreticilerin Üretim Kararlarında Etkili Olan Faktörlerin Belirlenmesi
Türkiye önemli gen merkezlerinden biri olup aynı zamanda buğdayın anavatanı konumundadır. Anadolu’da 10.000 yıllık bir tarihi olan buğdayın stratejik bir ürün olmasının yanı sıra kültürel bir mirastır. Bu kültürel miras ...
Effect of simulated irrigation in wheat cultivation in Jordan
To enhance net income from limited water resources, Fujimaki et al. (2014) presented a scheme for determining irrigation depth using a numerical model of crop response to irrigation and quantitative weather forecast. To ...
