Assessing the Stability of Herbicide-Tolerant Lentil Accessions (Lens culinaris Medik.) under Diverse Environments
Assessing the adaptability and stability of herbicide-tolerant lentil accessions to two broad-spectrum post-emergence herbicides in multi-environment trials has become a must in a breeding program to improve its selection. ...
Quarantine seed-borne pests of food legumes, cereals, forages and rangelands and their detection methods applied by ICARDA's GHU
In order to safeguard countries from quarantine risks (insect pests, pathogens, nematodes, parasitic weeds) associated with the movement of germplasm, ICARDA’s Germplasm Health Unit (GHU) follows a regulatory and quarantine ...
Molecular Diagnosis of Viruses Causing Yellowing and Stunting Symptoms Affecting Pulse Crops in Central West Asia and North Africa Countries
Viruses causing yellowing and stunting are the most important virus diseases affecting pulses in many regions of the world, and were considered for many years to be caused mainly by infection with beet western yellows virus ...
Germplasm Program Annual Report 2000
This report summarizes the key accomplishments and efforts of the Germplasm Program at the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) in 2000.
Extra short duration varieties for rice fallow evaluated
A total of 132 short duration lentil lines were evaluated in four separate yield trials along with three checks at two locations, Marchouch in Morocco and Terbol in Lebanon, during 2019. Based on days to flowering, four ...
Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay for detection and characterization of Pea seed-borne mosaic virus in legumes applied by ICARDA’s GHU
Pea seed-borne mosaic virus (PSbMV, genus Potyvirus, family Potyviridae) is the most important virus infecting lentil both in terms of economic importance and geographical distribution. It was reported that PSbMV can even ...
Importance of agrobiodiversity and options for promoting its onfarm conservation and sustainable use: Case of West Asia dryland agrobiodiversity project
West Asia encompasses the mega-center of diversity of species of global importance (wheat, barley, lentil, and many forage legume and fruit tree species) whose conservation will contribute to sustaining agriculture and ...
Optimization of planting time and population density for short duration lentil
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) is a major food legume crop grown in rotation with cereal crops in South Asia, West Asia and North Africa (WANA), and Sub-Saharan Africa regions. In WANA region, lentil is also grown in spring ...
Effects of heat stress on physiology and reproductive biology of chickpea and lentil
Chickpea and lentil are two vital winter-season legumes; their production has been found to be seriously constrained by increase in temperature during reproductive stage. Considering this, we examined the effects of high ...
Screening of germplasm and elite lines for machine harvestability traits
This report contains 7 activities associated mainly with mechanical harvestable traits. These activities are: (1) Evaluation of performance of lentil genotypes for machine harvestability; (2) Genome Wide Association Studies ...
