Breeding faba bean for resistance to Orobanche spp: past research and future orientation
Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is one of the important pulse crops grown in
many parts of the world. Its production and productivity are affected by different
biotic and abiotic stresses. Broomrape (Orobanche and Phelipanche ...
Population structure and reproductive mode of Didymella fabae in Syria
Didymella fabae is a highly destructive fungal pathogen of faba bean (Vicia faba) that represents a significant yield-limiting biotic constraint in all locations where the crop is grown. However, nothing is known about the ...
Varietal output and adoption in barley, chickpea, faba bean, field pea, and lentil in Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Sudan
This chapter focuses on the improvements in the production of barley, chickpea, faba bean, field pea and lentil in Ethiopia, Eritrea and Sudan. Information on cultivar output and adoption of these crops is also presented.
Evaluating the Productivity Potential of Chickpea, Lentil, and Faba bean under Saline Water Irrigation Systems.
The information on salinity threshold levels for food legumes when irrigating with saline water is limited and old. In a multiyear
study at two sites in the Euphrates Basin, we aimed at (i) evaluating the potential of ...
Genetic Relationship and Diversity Analysis of Faba Bean (Vicia Faba L. var. Minor) Genetic Resources Using Morphological and Microsatellite Molecular Markers
Assessment of genetic diversity is an essential component in germplasm characterization and utilization. Molecular markers serve as a valuable tool to assess the genetic variation and germplasm identification, which play ...
Varietal Adoption, Outcomes and Impact
This chapter focuses on the adoption and turnover of cultivars of crops, such as soyabean, maize, pigeon pea, wheat, cassava, rice, potato, barley, yam, groundnut, bean, sorghum, cowpea, pearl millet, chickpea, faba bean, ...
ICARDA’S Genebank Resources and Activities: A Vital Tool in Ensuring a Food-Secure Future for Dryland Communities
Agrobiodiversity is one of the world’s most precious resources for ensuring food security as climate change, globally diminishing natural resource base and rapidly growing population pose an unprecedented challenge to feed ...
Varietal Generation and Output
This chapter focuses on the improved cultivar generation of various crops (maize, cassava, rice, bean, potato, cowpea, wheat, soyabean, sweet potato, yam, sorghum, groundnut, banana, chickpea, pigeon pea, barley, pearl ...
A genomic toolkit for improvement of faba bean
My group has led the collaborative development of a set of over 950
SNP markers for Vicia faba; of these approximately 650 have been mapped so far.
Our current consensus linkage map of faba bean consists of just 6 linkage ...
Performance of faba bean genotypes with Orobanche foetida Poir. and Orobanche crenata Forsk. infestation in Tunisia
Orobanche foetida Poir. and O. crenata Forsk. are major constraints to faba bean (Vicia faba L.) cultivation in Tunisia. To
evaluate the different levels of resistance of seven small-seeded faba bean genotypes to these ...
