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 ...
Breeding progress for yield in winter wheat genotypes targeted to irrigated environments of the CWANA region
The international winter wheat improvement program (IWWIP), an alliance between Turkey–CIMMYT–ICARDA, has distributed improved germplasm to different National Agricultural Research Systems (NARS) partners through international ...
Evaluation of wheat genetic resources of Azerbaijan on normal and saline fields
Genetic variation is a key to successful crop improvement. This study was conducted to evaluate a set of 48 accessions and two controls of hexaploid winter wheat from the gene bank of the Genetic Resources Institute ...
Crop breeding for the development of climate resilient crops: Approaches at ICARDA
Crop production has been challenged by abiotic and biotic constraints since its inception. However, the magnitude and intensity of these stresses are increasing dramatically due to climate change causing recurrent droughts, ...
