Genetic diversity of SSR and ISSR markers in wild populations of Brachypodium distachyon and its close relatives B. stacei and B. hybridum (Poaceae)
The genetic diversity of seven wild populations of the grass Brachypodium distachyon
(2n = 10), 4 of B. stacei (2n = 20) and 13 of B. hybridum (2n = 30) from the
Mediterranean and southern areas of the Iberian Peninsula ...
Regional changes in the sequence of cotton leaf curl multan betasatellite
Cotton leaf curl disease (CLCuD) in Pakistan and northwestern India is caused by monopartite begomoviruses in association with an essential, disease-specific satellite, Cotton leaf curl Multan betasatellite (CLCuMB). ...
Xanthium strumarium: a weed host of components of begomovirus-betasatellite complexes affecting crops
Xanthium strumarium is a common weed that often shows symptoms typical of begomovirus infection, such as leaf curling and vein thickening. The virus complex isolated from the weed consisted of two begomoviruses along with ...
Genetic Diversity Analysis for Earliness, Fiber Quality and Cotton Leaf Curl Virus in Gossypium hirsutum L. Accessions.
In the present set of experiment 159 cotton genotypes that were imported from USA were evaluated for cotton leaf curl
virus disease tolerance, better fiber quality and various yield related traits. For evaluation of these ...
Land use change and ecosystem services in mountainous watersheds: Predicting the consequences of environmental policies with cellular automata and hydrological modeling
Integrated model systems that simulate land use and land cover change (LUCC) and associated changes of ecosystem services (ES) are increasingly important for supporting policies and management decisions. However, only few ...
Adaptability and suitability of local cattle breeds in Egypt: Farmers and actors’ perceptions and practices of the cattle value chain
Egypt, where the mean temperature is expected to increase by 1−1.5°C over the next two decades, is particularly concerned with climate change in the Medi- terranean. Most of the research works on adaptive animal traits ...
Length of Growing Period over Africa: Variability and Trends from 30 Years of NDVI Time Series
The spatial distribution of crops and farming systems in Africa is determined by the duration of the period during which crop and livestock water requirements are met. The length of growing period (LGP) is normally assessed ...
Cloning, Expression, Sequence Analysis and Homology Modeling of the Prolyl Endoprotease from Eurygaster integriceps Puton
Eurygaster integriceps Puton, commonly known as sunn pest, is a major pest of wheat in Northern Africa,
the Middle East and Eastern Europe. This insect injects a prolyl endoprotease into the wheat, destroying
the gluten. ...
Putting Economic and Environmental Sustainability Hand in Hand to Protect Our Lands
Land degradation is an underestimated global concern with far-reaching
implications affecting the ability of land to provide food and incomes. Globally, a
large portion of the vulnerable human populations—the rural poor—live ...
Cotton leaf curl virus disease a principle cause of decline in cotton productivity in Pakistan (a mini review)
Among most serious threats of last two decades with reference to cotton crop in Pakistan is Cotton leaf Curl Virus. This disease inflicted huge losses not only to the cotton crop but also to the economy of Pakistan. It ...
