Breeding faba bean for resistance to Orobanche spp: past research and future orientation
Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is one of the important pulse crops grown in
many parts of the world. Its production and productivity are affected by different
biotic and abiotic stresses. Broomrape (Orobanche and Phelipanche ...
Practical Guide to Conservation Agriculture in West Asia and North Africa
Conservation agriculture (CA) is a new method of agricultural production that is more productive and environmentally friendly than the common form of agriculture based on plowing and intensive soil tillage. However, adopting ...
Orobanche crenata on Faba bean in Tadla Region (Morocco): Importance and training activities for farmers
The broomrape (Orobanche crenata Forsk), parasitic plant, causes
significant damage to food legumes in the Taghzirte region (Tadla, Morocco) and is
the origine of very significant decrease in the reserved area for these ...
Current status of Faba bean production in Egypt
In Egypt, the cultivated area off Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) has decreased since last
decade .The cultivated area devoted to faba bean in Egypt was 322 thousand faddan in
1997/98-2001/02 seasons declined to only 98 thousand ...
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 ...
Genetic Variability of Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. ciceris Population Affecting Chickpea in the Sudan
Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. ciceris (Foc) is the most important soilborne disease of chickpea in the Sudan and many other countries. A total of 76 Foc isolates from six different chickpea-growing states ...
In vitro culture of Orobanche crenata
Orobanche species are serious holoparasitic angiosperm weeds that
cause heavy direct damage to many important crops. Thus, Orobanche crenata
Forsk. is considered an important constraint to legume crops in the Mediterranean
area. ...
Morphological characterization of some Tunisian bread wheat (TriticumaestivumL.) accessions
Seventy four Tunisian bread wheat accessions were characterized using seven morphological traits: spike color, spike shape, spike density, beak shape, beak length, glume shoulder shape, grain color and grain size. Accessions ...
Selection of Tolerant Lines to Salinity Derived from Durum Wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) in Vitro Culture
The genetic variability is considered as the major principle of plant breeding for durum wheat.
This variability can be induced in vitro by selection pressure exerted by stress factors such as salinity in order to regenerate ...
Integrated management of Ascochyta blight (Didymella fabae) on faba bean under Mediterranean conditions
Integrated disease management options (two sowing dates, three fungicides and 3e6 faba bean genotypes) in managing Ascochyta blight affecting faba bean were evaluated for three cropping seasons (2006/07e2008/09) in northern ...
