Estimation of heritability from varietal trials data
We present the estimation of heritabilities of an observed trait in situations where evaluation of several pure breeding lines is performed in a trial at a single location and in trials from several locations. For the ...
Decision tree classification for crop type mapping using Landsat 8 optical satellite imagery
Presentation of Decision tree classification for crop type mapping using Landsat 8 optical satellite imagery
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 ...
Barley and Vetch yields from dryland rotations with varying tillage and residue management under Mediterranean conditions
With increasing land-use pressure in semi-arid, dryland Middle Eastern agriculture, fallow-based cereal production has given way to cropping intensification, including legume-based rotations along with conservation tillage ...
Science Quality at ICARDA: A Key to Rationalized, Efficient and Transferable Innovations
The document reviews the status of science quality (SQ) at ICARDA in the context of research, training and out-scaling dimensions. The overall objective of introducing the notion of SQ is in ensuring that the focus of the ...
Work-plan 2017: Biometrics and Statistics Section
Biometrics and Statistics support will be made available in the design of experiments, data
analysis and inference, and statistical review of scientific manuscripts. Support will also be given
in statistical computing and ...
Report of Biometrics and Statistics Activities During 2016
Delivered biometrics and statistics support to the scientists and students on experimental
design and statistical analysis, developed computing codes and carried out data analyses,
helped in drawing inferences, suggested ...
Effect of shallow tillage, moldboard plowing, straw management and compost addition on soil organic matter and nitrogen in a dryland barley/wheat-vetch rotation
Sustainability of dryland cropping is a major issue in the typical Mediterranean climatic environment of West Asia and North Africa. Management of crop residues and soil organic matter (SOM) and its interrelationship with ...
Wheat Barley and Triticale Newsletter - RACHIS - No. 18(1)
The RACHIS information service has been initiated by ICARDA to meet the information needs of barley, wheat and triticale research workers in the Near East and North Africa region. RACHIS seeks to report research results ...
Assessment of long-term barley–legume rotations in a typical Mediterranean agro-ecosystem: grain and straw yields
Traditional Mediterranean rainfed cereal/fallow systems are being replaced by cereal monoculture due to land-use pressure. Food or forage legumes in rotation with cereals are an alternative sustainable cropping system. ...
