Farmers’ Perceptions of Water Policies: A Case Study from the Jordanian Badia
This report reviews a case study of farmers’ perceptions of policies and regulations to improve water security in the Jordanian Badia. The aim is to improve water management and conservation by engaging all stakeholders, ...
Wheat and barley seed system in Syria: How diverse are wheat and barley varieties and landraces from farmer’s fields?
The present study described the diversity of wheat and barley varieties and
landraces available in farmer’s fields in Syria using different indicators. Analysis
of spatial and temporal diversity and coefficient of parentage ...
Development of Salinity Models by Remote Sensing in Central and Southern Iraq
This technical report series captures and documents the work in progress of the Iraq Salinity Project, in its seven research themes, working at the regional, farm and irrigation system scales. Technical reports feed into ...

Barley genetic resources under climate changes: a possible way in field study
Presentation presented at the International workshop: “Applied Mathematics and Omics
Technologies for Discovering Biodiversity and Genetic Resources for Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation to Sustain Agriculture in Drylands”
Development of specific primers for the detection of HVA1 from barley in transgenic durum wheat by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology
Genetic transformation is a widely employed tool in both basic research and commercial plant breeding
programs. Its application requires that transgenes be stably integrated and expressed in the plant
genome. When transgenic ...
