Bio-economic efficiency of creep supplementation of forage legumes or concentrate in pasture-based lamb production system
Supplemental feeding of lambs with forage legumes or grains provides a potential option to increase proportion of prime lambs and profitability in intensive pasture-based lamb production systems. A two-year study in the ...

Chromic and Rhodic Livisols, otherwise knozn as the Red Medterranean Soils or the TErra Rossa, Show marked textiral differences and genetic peculiarities within their profil, Controvesial genetic characteristics observed ...
International Winter Wheat Improvement Program: serving global breeding community
International Winter Wheat Improvement Program (www.iwwip.org) was established in 1986 as a cooperative project between the Government of Turkey and CIMMYT. The main objective was development of winter and facultative wheat ...
Seed Info No. 53
Seed Info aims to stimulate information exchange and regular communication among seed staff in the Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region and beyond. Its purpose is to help strengthen national seed programs ...
Characterization and utilization of currently grown Turkish wheat landraces
From 2009 to 2014 a nationwide effort was made to document, collect, conserve, characterize and utilize wheat landraces grown by Turkish farmers. Altogether 95 morphotypes were identified representing three species and six ...
Regular updating of the crossing block with new barley varieties for conducting the crossing program of winter barley for different breeding objectives
The new sources of abiotic and biotic stresses have also been identified after evaluation through collaboration with NARS for phenotyping at diverse environments. Crossing blocks (CB) of barley 480 germplasm for spring ...
Biomass yield and feeding value of rye, triticale, and wheat straw produced under a dual-purpose management system
Dual-purpose management of winter cereals for grazing and grain production provides highly nutritive forage for ruminants in the spring and may positively affect straw feeding value. A 2-yr study investigated the effect ...
Genetic gains in wheat in Turkey: winter wheat for dryland conditions
Wheat breeders in Turkey have been developing new varieties since the 1920s, but few studies have evaluated the rates of genetic improvement. This study determined wheat genetic gains by evaluating 22 winter/facultative ...
Develop MAGIC and biparental populations following SSD (2) Phenotyping of populations for target traits
Seed increase is in progress of 3000 F6 generation MAGIC lines derived from the crosses involving the parents, ICGV 91114, ICGV 06040, 55-437, ICGV 00440, ICGV 00308, GPBD 4, ICGV 05155 and ICGV 88145. RIL population derived ...
Barley research in India: challenges and opportunities
Barley in India is grown in marginal, problematic and resource poor soils as a rainfed crop except some malt barley under contract farming. India's annual production of barley is around 1.6-1.8 m tons and area under ...
