Micro-catchment water harvesting potential of an arid environment
Micro-catchment water harvesting (MCWH) requires development of small structures across mild land slopes, which capture overland flow and store it in soil profile for subsequent plant uses. Water availability to plants ...
CGIAR Regional Program for Central Asia and the Caucasus Annual Report 2009 - 2010
During the last twelve years, the CAC Program has achieved considerable progress in three
areas of research and development activities, namely conservation of genetic resources,
germplasm enhancement and crop diversification, ...
Табиатни муҳофаза қилиш устидан давлат бошқаруви (Study Program for the course in “State management in nature protection”)
Жаҳон тараққиётининг ҳозирги босқичида экология билан боғлиқ масалалар, табиат экотизими емирилишининг кенгайиб бориши, биологик хилма-хилликнинг қисқариши, табиий муҳит глобал ўзгаришининг таҳдиди, саноат объектларидаги ...
Sources of technical efficiency of sheep production systems in dry areas in Syria
A random sample of sheep producers in the dry areas of Syria were surveyed in 2002. Based on sheep movement, four production systems were identified; migratory, transhumance, semi-sedentary and sedentary. The survey data ...
Intra-species variations in yield and quality in Lathyrus species: 1. Grasspea (L. sativus L.)
Variations in days to flowering and pod maturity, hay grain and straw yields; and concentrations of crude protein (CP), acid detergent fibre (ADFom), neutral detergent fibre (aNDFom), and in vitro organic matter (OM) ...
Strategies for Phosphorus Nutrition of Dryland Wheat in Pakistan
Phosphorus (P) is an endemic soil constraint to crop production in rainfed semi-arid regions like the 1.82-Mha Pothohar Plateau in Pakistan, where we monitored the P status of rainfed wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and ...
Mastreviruses in chickpea (Cicer arietinum) and other dicotyledonous crops and weeds in Queensland and northern New South Wales, Australia
Natural infection by mastreviruses was investigated in chickpea (Cicer arietinum) and other dicotyledonous crops and weeds in grain production areas of Queensland and northern New South Wales, Australia, from 2000 to 2005. ...
Semi-Detailed Soil Surveys of Merek and Honam Watersheds, Karkheh River Basin, Iran
The study of soils is important for landuse planning, agriculture, and natural resource development programs. Determination of soil characteristics and limitations is one of the most important duties of soil researchers. ...
Lead phytoextraction by wheat in response to the edta application method
Lead solubilization in soil and accumulation by spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was studied in response to the ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) application method. In this study, 4 mmol EDTA kg−1 was applied using ...
The effect of spot blotch and heat stress on variation of canopy temperature depression, chlorophyll fluorescence and chlorophyll content of hexaploid wheat genotypes
Spot blotch, caused by Cochliobolus sativus (Ito and Kurib.) Drechsler ex Dastur, and heat stress are two important stresses of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) causing substantial yield reduction in the warm areas of ...
