Assessment of on-farm conservation of dryland agrobiodiversity and its impact on rural livelihoods in the Fertile Crescent
The Fertile Crescent encompasses a mega-center of diversity of crops and livestock of global importance. The
International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) coordinated a 5-year regional project
funded ...
Larva of parasitoid for Adult Sunn pest ( Fasia fly )
Larva of parasitoid for Adult Sunn pest (Fasia fly).
Predicting resistance to stripe (yellow) rust (Puccinia striiformis) in wheat genetic resources using focused identification of germplasm strategy
Stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is a major wheat disease that can inflict yield losses of up to 70% on susceptible varieties under favourable environmental conditions. The timely identification ...
Assessment of Drought and Heat Tolerance of Durum Wheat Lines Derived from Interspecific Crosses Using Physiological Parameters and Stress Indices
Drought and high temperature are the major abiotic stresses for wheat production. The present study investigated the effect of drought and chronic heat stress on physiological parameters of durum wheat lines derived from ...
Wild Resistant for Sunn pest
Wild Resistant for Sunn pest.
Graphic Analysis of Trait Relations and Genotype Evaluation in Durum Wheat
Trait profiles of genotypes and trait relations are frequently influenced by unpredictable conditions in the Mediterranean rainfed regions. Thus, genotype selection should be based on multiple traits in variable environments ...
Predictive Characterization for Seed Morphometric Traits for Genebank Accessions Using Genomic Selection
Seed traits of bread wheat, including the seed size that is considered to be associated with early vigor of the crop and end-use quality, are valuable to farmers and breeders. In this study, a collection of 789 bread wheat ...
The use of AMMI model for interpreting genotype x environment interaction in durum wheat
Durum wheat (Triticum durum) is one of the most important cereal crops in the Mediterranean region; however, its cultivation suffers from low yield due to environmental constrains. The main objectives of this study were ...
Tracking of powdery mildew and leaf rust resistance genes in Triticum boeoticum and T. urartu, wild relatives of common wheat
Wild Triticum and Aegilops species are increasingly used in wheat breeding programmes around the world as donors of genes conferring resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses, as well as of genes that contribute to the ...
Comparison of Genomic Prediction Methods for Yellow, Stem, and Leaf Rust Resistance in Wheat Landraces from Afghanistan
Wheat rust diseases, including yellow rust (Yr; also known as stripe rust) caused by Puccinia striiformis Westend. f. sp. tritici, leaf rust (Lr) caused by Puccinia triticina Eriks. and stem rust (Sr) caused by Puccinia ...
