Efficiency of spatial methods in yield trials in lentil (Lens culinaris ssp. culinaris)
Incomplete block (IB) analysis of lentil yield trials in lattice block designs substantially reduced experimental error variability compared to randomized complete block (RCB) analysis. Spatial variability, which may exist ...
Rainfall and temperature effects on lentil (Lens culinaris) seed yield in Mediterranean environments
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) is a rain-fed crop in North Africa and West Asia whose yields are limited by the amount and distribution of rainfall and winter cold. This study aimed to quantify the effects of climatic ...
Fusarium vascular wilt in lentil: Inheritance and identification of DNA markers for resistance
The inheritance of resistance to lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) vascular wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp, lentis was investigated in a cross between resistant (ILL5588) and susceptible (L692-16-1(s)) lines. F-2:4 ...
Iron deficiency in lentil: Yield loss and geographic distribution in a germplasm collection
Iron deficiency symptoms are observed on some genotypes of lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) grown in calcareous soil. A germplasm collection of 3512 accessions originating from 18 countries was characterized for iron ...
QTL Mapping of Winter Hardiness Genes in Lentil
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) germplasm with sufficient winter hardiness to survive most winters in cold northern areas is available. However, the use of that germplasm in breeding programs is hampered by variable winter ...
The use of Rapd markers for lentil genetic mapping and the evaluation of distorted F2 segregation
To maximize the extent of polymorphism within a mapping population wide crosses are often made, frequently resulting in distorted segregation. Two parents used in the crosses in this study contained ca 50% from wild lentil ...
Using genetic diversity for disease resistance in agricultural production
The three main germplasm resource bases used for genetic diversity in disease resistance are commercial varieties, landraces and wild ancestral species. Cultivar mixtures with landraces have traditionally been used by ...
Quantitave evaluation of Ethiopian landraces of lentil (Lens culinaris)
One hundred and fifty-six landrace populations of lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) collected from 10 provinces in Ethiopia were evaluated for a set of six quantitative traits at three sites contrasting in altitude. Consistent ...
Registration of 'Ozbek' Lentil
Registration of 'Ozbek' Lentil.
Mimicry of lentil and the domestication of common vetch and grass pea
A hypothesis is proposed whereby weedy vetch (Vicia sativa L.) seed moved with seed of the cultivated lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) as a tolerated weed during the spread of the lentil from the Fertile Crescent in the ...
