Phenotypic and genetic diversity in Sinorhizobium meliloti and S. medicae from drought and salt affected regions of Morocco
Sinorhizobium meliloti and S. medicae are symbiotic nitrogen fixing bacteria in root nodules of forage legume alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.). In Morocco, alfalfa is usually grown in marginal soils of arid and semi-arid regions ...
Drought risk assessment in pasture arid Morocco through remote sensing
During the last three decades, Morocco has experienced several stern and extended episodes of drought that severely affected pasture production. To cope with this phenomenon, the policy makers have put emphasis on a reactive ...
Effects of partial replacement of concentrate with feed blocks on nutrient utilization, microbial N flow, and milk yield and composition in goats
Two experiments were carried out to evaluate the effect of partial replacement of concentrate with 2 types of feed blocks (FB) on rumen protozoa numbers, nutrient utilization, microbial N flow to the duodenum, and milk ...
First Report of Beet mosaic virus Infecting Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) in Tunisia
First Report of Beet mosaic virus Infecting Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) in Tunisia.
Detection of genetic diversity in Moroccan durum wheat accessions using agro-morphological traits and microsatellite markers
Characterization of germplasm by agro-morphological, biochemical and DNA-markers provide powerful tools to precise germplasm identification, quantify the genetic diversity and to estimate the phylogenetic relationship among ...
Phenotypic and Molecular Characterization of Wheat for Slow Rusting Resistance against Puccinia striiformis Westend. f.sp. tritici
Race-specific resistance of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) to yellow rust caused by Puccinia striiformis Westend. f.sp. tritici is often short-lived. Slow-rusting resistance has been reported to be a more durable type of ...
Variation in soil chemical properties along toposequences in an arid region of the Levant
Detailed characterization of soils and their variation along different topography positions has not been investigated in depth for Mediterranean arid regions. There is a need to accurately understand the variation and the ...
Pathotype and microsatellite analyses reveal newsources of resistance to barley scald inTunisia
We examined the variation and relationships between pathogenicity and a microsatellite-based haplotype in 79 Tunisian Rhynchosporium secalis isolates that were collected from the most commonly cultivated barley populations ...
A Global Survey Of Effects Of Genotype And Environment On Selenium Concentration In Lentils (Lens Culinaris L.): Implications For Nutritional Fortification Strategies
Lentils (Lens culinaris L) are an important protein and carbohydrate food, rich in essential dietary components and trace elements. Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient for human health. For adults, 55 mu g of daily ...
