Control of Heterodera Ciceri by Crop rotation
A field experiment in Syria in 1986-1991 tested the efficacy of six four-year crop rotations for the control of Heterodera ciceri on chickpea and grasspea. Crop sequences included cultivation of non-host crops (barley and ...
Wild Cicer species in Chickpea Improvement
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L) is one of the most important cool food season legumes grown in Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA). Although substantial research has been done for the improvement of the crop, major ...
The Natural Occurrence of Chickpea Chlorotic Dwarf Geminivirus in Chickpea and Faba Bean in the Sudan
A survey of faba bean and chickpea for virus infection, conducted during February 1994 in the Sudan, showed that bean yellow mosaic potyvirus and broad bean mottle bromovirus occurred commonly in both crops. Chickpea ...
Chickpea varieties with resistance to ascochyta blight Screening for new genetic resource of resistance to AB Phenotyping AB resistance
A mixture of fungal cultures of A. rabiei pathotypes (pathotypes I, II, and III) obtained from the Legume Pathology Laboratory at ICARDA was used to screen the chickpea subset. The experiment was laid out in Alpha Lattice ...
A chickpea genetic variation map based on the sequencing of 3,366 genomes
Zero hunger and good health could be realized by 2030 through effective conservation, characterization and utilization of germplasm resources1. So far, few chickpea (Cicer arietinum) germplasm accessions have been characterized ...
Ties that Bind: Algeria and ICARDA Twenty-Five Years of Collaboration
The partnership between ICARDA and Algeria was further strengthened with the signing, in September 1986, of an agreement of collaboration between Algeria's Ministry of Agriculture and ICARDA. This has led to several projects ...
Nutritional and Technological Optimization of Wheat-Chickpea- Milk Powder Composite Flour and Its Impact on Rheological and Sensorial Properties of Leavened Flat Bread
Flour quality is influenced by the nature of the gluten and its various components. Gluten
free flour made of pulses is known to enhance the nutritional quality of wheat flour. However, its
addition can compromise the ...
Additional Sources of Tolerance to Cold in Cultivated and Wild Cicer Species
Cold tolerance is an important prerequisite for winter sowing of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) in Mediterranean environments. Cold-tolerant lines identified earlier at ICARDA are sometimes not tolerant enough to tolerate ...
Evidence of Geographical Divergence in Kabuli Chickpea from Germplasm Evaluation Data
Turkey is the putative center of origin of cultivated chickpea, Cicer arietinum L. The large-seeded kabuli chickpea is the most common type cultivated in West Asia and the Mediterranean region. This type is believed to ...
Dinitrogen Fixation and Nitrogen Balance in Cool-Season Food Legumes
Understanding the magnitude of N2 fixation and export of plant N, particularly in the harvested grain and straw, is necessary to assess the potential for grain legumes to contribute to long-term agricultural production ...
