Variation in the straw traits of morphological fractions of faba bean (Vicia faba L.) and implications for selecting for food-feed varieties
Five varieties of faba bean (four improved released varieties and one local variety) were investigated for varietal variation in straw yield, nutritive value of straw morphological fractions and grain yield. Samples of the ...
Phenotypic variability and characteristics of lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) germplasm of Ethiopia by multivariate analysis
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik) is an important crop in Ethiopian highlands. Its productivity is very low
due to low yielding landraces and other factors. The objectives of this study were to classify groups of
genotypes ...
Orobanche resistance in faba bean and lentil
In order to identify resistance sources, 216 lentil and 194 faba bean elite lines and 280 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) of a faba bean cross (BPL710 x ILB4347) were screened against Orobanche crenata in a
sick plot at ...
