Assessment of long-term barley–legume rotations in a typical Mediterranean agro-ecosystem: grain and straw yields
Traditional Mediterranean rainfed cereal/fallow systems are being replaced by cereal monoculture due to land-use pressure. Food or forage legumes in rotation with cereals are an alternative sustainable cropping system. ...
Identifying Superior Rainfed Barley Genotypes in Farmers' Fields Using Participatory Varietal Selection
This study was carried out to identify superior barley genotypes for the rainfed areas of western Iran using a participatory varietal selection (PVS) approach. Three field experiments were conducted in two randomly selected ...
Genome Wide Association Analyses For Drought Tolerance Related Traits In Barley (Hordeum Vulgare L.)
Genome wide association (GWA) analysis of yield, yield components, developmental, physiological and anatomical traits was conducted for a barley germplasm collection consisting 01 185 cultivated (Hordeum vulgare L) and 38 ...
Predictive Association between Biotic Stress Traits and Eco-Geographic Data for Wheat and Barley Landraces
Collections of crop genetic resources are a valuable source of new genetic variation for economically important traits, including resistance to crop diseases. New sources of useful crop traits are often identified through ...
Current Status of Agro-biodiversity in Lebanon and Future Challenges
Though a small country, Lebanon hosts various ecosystems that allow for a large number of
plants ranging from cold requiring crops to subtropical ones to live and flourish. More than 80
plant species for food and agriculture ...
QTLs for chlorophyll and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters in barley under post-flowering drought
Drought is one of the major factors limiting barley yields in many developing countries worldwide. The identification of molecular markers linked to genes controlling drought tolerance in barley is one way to improve ...
Wheat and barley seed system in Syria: farmers' varietal perceptions, seed sources and seed management
A total of 206 wheat and 200 barley farmers were interviewed in northeastern Syria to understand farmer perceptions and practice relating to modern varieties, seed sources and seed quality. Wheat farmers had better awareness ...
First Report Of Wheat Dwarf Virus And Its Vector (Psammotettix Provincialis) Affecting Wheat And Barley Crops In Syria
A field survey covering the major cereal-production areas of Syria was conducted during May 2009. A total of 938 wheat and 971 barley samples with typical symptoms of viral infection were collected from 45 wheat and 58 ...
Mixed model association scans of multi-environmental trial data reveal major loci controlling yield and yield related traits in Hordeum vulgare in Mediterranean environments
An association panel consisting of 185 accessions representative of the barley germplasm cultivated in the Mediterranean basin was used to localise quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling grain yield and yield related ...
