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 ...
Faba Bean
Faba bean was first domesticated in the Near East about 10,000 BC. It is now grown
worldwide on 2.56 million ha with a yield of 4.56 million tons. The traditional landraces are
affected by the different biotic and abiotic ...
Herbicide tolerance Faba bean, chickpea and lentils
The research aimed to screen faba bean, Chickpea and lentils to diverse herbicides. 50 lentil genotypes were screened to Imizathapyr and Metribuzin; 226 Chickpea lines screened to Imizathapyr and Metribuzin, among them 100 ...
Breeding for post emergence herbicides in Cool season food legumes
Cool-season food legumes (faba bean, chickpea and lentils) are mostly grown in rainfed dryland systems,
because of many virtues such as high protein content, atmospheric nitrogen fixation, and low carbon and
water foot ...
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, ...
Screening of germplasm and elite lines for machine harvestability traits
This report contains 7 activities associated mainly with mechanical harvestable traits. These activities are: (1) Evaluation of performance of lentil genotypes for machine harvestability; (2) Genome Wide Association Studies ...
