Monthly report of activities for May 2017
The report details the main tasks accomplished during May 2017 in the context of the project “Impact evaluation of SLM options to achieve land degradation neutrality in Tunisia”. Basically the report provide the progress ...
Multi environment evaluation of chickpea disease nurseries (wilt, Aschochyta blight and Botrytis grey mold) to identify stable and new sources of resistance
Under the ICRISAT- ICAR collaboration, disease nurseries of wilt (ICWN), AB (IABN) and BGM (IBGMN) consisting of 30 entries (28 resistant cultivars and 2 susceptible checks) were evaluated at different locations (hot spots) ...
Creating Spatial Data on Sustainable Land Management Practices in two Pilot Sites in Tunisia (Northern Africa)
Many efforts have been invested in the Dry Areas to combat land degradation and desertification. Different strategies and approaches for conserving soil and water and restoring degraded lands have been developed by local, ...
Land cover changes in Tunisia using MODerate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) MCD12Q1 yearly products
Land cover is one of the important components of the global geosphere-biosphere-atmosphere
continuum and equilibrium. Regular information on land cover is necessary for a continuous
monitoring of the Earth’s ecological ...
Monthly report of activities for July 2017
This report provides an overview of the different tasks performed during the period 1st – 31th July 2017. In the context of the project “Impact evaluation of SLM options to achieve land degradation neutrality in Tunisia”, ...
Develop MAGIC and biparental populations following SSD (2) Phenotyping of populations for target traits
Seed increase is in progress of 3000 F6 generation MAGIC lines derived from the crosses involving the parents, ICGV 91114, ICGV 06040, 55-437, ICGV 00440, ICGV 00308, GPBD 4, ICGV 05155 and ICGV 88145. RIL population derived ...
Multi-environment evaluation of pigeonpea disease nursery of 28 lines to wilt and SMD resistance
Under the ICAR-ICRISAT collaboration, during 2015-16 crop seasons, Pigeonpea Wilt and SM Disease Nursery (PWSMDN) consisting of 30 entries (28 resistant cultivars and 2 susceptible checks) were evaluated for wilt and SMD ...
Development of proteome library from FOC inoculated chickpea resistant and susceptible cultivars under elevated CO2 through MALDI and MS-MS analysis
Total root proteins of control and Foc infected chickpea (JG 62 and WR 315) were extracted. Isoelectric focusing (IEF) of extracted proteins was carried out using immobilized pH gradient (IPG) strips. 2-DE gels were scanned ...
Expression profiling from different tissues and developmental stages to define gene atlas
Thirty seven different samples representing 19 aerial, seven underground, two germinal and nine seed development related tissues from five different developmental stages have been targeted. The five developmental stages ...
Surveys conducted to know the occurrence and distribution of diseases in chickpea and pigeonpea growing regions
For chickpea disease, a survey was conducted between November and January in four major chickpea growing states in central and southern parts of India viz. Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Maharashtra. For pigeonpea, survey ...
