Hessian fly is an important pest of wheat on the North American continent and the temperate Mediterranean drylands. Yield losses caused by this insect in Morocco are the heaviest in the Mediterranean region and are estimated ...
Changes in allele frequencies in landraces, old and modern barley cultivars of marker loci close to QTL for grain yield under high and low input conditions
Changes in alleles frequencies of marker loci linked to yield quantitative trait loci (QTL) were studied in 188 barley entries (landraces, old and modern cultivars) grown in six trials representing low and high yielding ...
Barley adaptation and improvement in the Mediterranean basin
To study barley adaptation and improvement in the Mediterranean basin, a collection of 188 entries comprising landraces and old genotypes and current modern varieties from the Mediterranean basin and elsewhere was tested ...
Seed Info No. 35
Seed Info aims to stimulate information exchange among seed staff in the Central and West Asia and
North Africa (CWANA) region. The purpose is to help strengthen national seed programs, and thus improve the supply of quality ...
Use of an adsorbent and antioxidants to reduce the effects of leached phenolics in in vitro plantlet regeneration of faba bean
Development of a reliable in vitro regeneration protocol is necessary to facilitate genetic transformation of faba bean. However, leaching of phenolics from the explants of most genotypes of faba bean to the culture medium ...
The Importance of Institutions in Mountainous Regions for Accessing Markets: An Example from the Moroccan High Atlas
Like other mountainous regions in the world, the High Atlas suffers from a number of disadvantages, primarily related to its marginality, topographical fragmentation, and harsh environmental conditions. It is characterized ...
Seed Info No. 34
Seed Info aims to stimulate information exchange and regular staff in the Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region. The purpose is to help strengthen national seed programs, and thus improve the supply of ...
Water Benchmarks of CWANA project: Monitoring and Evaluation Plan
The comprehensive project consists of three main projects: the Badia Benchmark Project in Jordan, which includes two satellite projects in Saudi Arabia and Libya, the Rainfed Benchmark Project in Morocco, which includes ...
Rainfed Benchmark Site Selection and Characterization
The project aims (1) to promote the adoption of technologies to increase water productivity and thus guarantee sustainable agricultural production; and (2) to transfer those technologies to other supplementary irrigated ...
Caravan 25: Special issue on climate change
This issue of Caravan describes some of ICARDA's work on climate change. It contains overviews of the key issues, and articles describing research in specific areas. We examine, for example, how genetic resources – landrace ...
