Chickpea Ascochyta Blight: Disease Status and Pathogen Mating Type Distribution in Syria
Chickpea fields were surveyed in nine major chickpeagrowing
provinces of Syria in 2008 and 2009 to determine
the prevalence and severity of Ascochyta blight,
and the distribution of Didymella rabiei mating types
(MATs) in ...
Farmers Field Day in Aral Sea Region_ CRP DS May 2014
The objectives of the Field day are: 1)Demonstrate the performance of recently released and pipeline varieties of winter wheat to the men and women farmers, seed producers, extension workers, policy makers and researchers. ...
QTL identifcation for Ascochyta blight resistance and its application in chickpea breeding
Ascochyta blight (AB), caused by Didymella rabiei regularly occurs in epidemic
form causing heavy yield and quality losses, and thus is a major biotic constraint to
chickpea production, particularly in the cool and wet ...
Efficiency of marker-assisted selection in detection of ascochyta blight resistance in Tunisian chickpea breeding lines
Ascochyta blight (AB) resistance reactions were studied in 23 chickpea cultivars, mainly advanced
lines and Tunisian varieties from the Tunisian chickpea breeding program, growing both at two locations and
under controlled ...
Grain yield losses due to leaf miner (Liriomyza cicerina R.) in winter- and spring-planted chickpea in Morocco
Chickpea leaf miner (Liriomyza cicerina R.) is one of the main insect pests damaging chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) inthe Mediterranean region.This study assessed yield losses caused by the chickpea leafminer on four improved ...
A SSR kit to study genetic diversity in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
A chickpea simple sequence repeat (SSR) marker reference kit has been developed based on the
genotyping of the global chickpea composite collection (3,000 accessions) with 35 SSR markers.
The kit consists of three pools ...
Improving food security and coping with biotic and abiotic constraints using improved crop germplasm in Central Asia and the Caucasus
This presentation highlights:
1) Constraints to winter crop production under climate change.
2) Germplasm introduction.
3) Progress on yellow rust resistant wheat varieties.
4) Progress on salinity tolerant wheat.
5) ...
Varietal output and adoption in barley, chickpea, faba bean, field pea, and lentil in Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Sudan
This chapter focuses on the improvements in the production of barley, chickpea, faba bean, field pea and lentil in Ethiopia, Eritrea and Sudan. Information on cultivar output and adoption of these crops is also presented.
Genetic diversity of microsatellite alleles located at quantitative resistance loci for Ascochyta blight resistance in a global collection of chickpea germplasm
A global collection of 43 chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) genotypes, resistant and susceptible to Ascochyta
blight caused by Ascochyta rabiei was evaluated for the disease under controlled conditions. In this study three
known ...
Effect of integrated management on Fusarium wilt progression and grain yield of chickpea in Syria
Fusarium wilt, caused by Fusarium oxysporum Schlechtend.: f. sp. ciceris (Padwick)
Matuo & K. Sato, is a major production problem in many countries. A study was
conducted to develop an integrated management of Fusarium ...
