FecXBar a Novel BMP15 mutation responsible for prolificacy and female sterility in Tunisian Barbarine Sheep
Background: Naturally occurring mutations in growth and differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) or bone morphogenetic
protein 15 (BMP15) genes are associated with increased ovulation rate (OR) and litter size (LS) but also ...
Phenotypic evaluation of the effect of high temperatures (2°C and 4°C above ambient temperature) on elite common bean lines
A heat tolerant trial of Andean beans was planted in Alvarado (Tolima) (July to November 2016). A total of 157 individual selections were planted. A total of 8 F1.3 and 31 F1.4 were selected under conditions of heat stress. ...
Responses to selection & breeding efficiencies determined by model calculations in the accelerated breeding scheme (ABS) for 1 year and 2 year testing in early breeding stages on basis of variance components estimated in the controlled cross versus poly-cross breeding experiment
The variance components estimations in early breeding stages for this deliverable are available on basis of 3x 1000 clones, two years, two locations and two plot replications – no clones were discarded in this experimental ...
Linking farm and soil nutrient balances with economic performance of main agricultural livelihood system types in a semi-arid region of Burkina Faso
Providing sufficient food to increasing populations in SubSaharan
Africa without undermining agro-ecosystems is a growing
challenge. Addressing this challenge requires developing an array of
sustainable soil nutrient ...

Source of resistant against Fusarium wilt and Stemphylium blight in lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus).
The crop yield of lentil is below attainable levels which are mainly attributed to pathological factors especially lentil wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lentis and Stemphylium blight caused by Stemphylium botryosum ...
Soil Volume: The Effect of Pot Size on Roots and Canopy Growth Performance of Cactus Pear
The influence of soil volume on roots and canopy growth performance of cactus pear (Opuntia ficus-indica) was studied at Palermo University. In November 2014, 1 year old Opuntia ficus-indica cladodes were planted in five ...
