The PREDICTS database: a global database of how local terrestrial biodiversity responds to human impacts
Biodiversity continues to decline in the face of increasing anthropogenic pressures such as habitat destruction, exploitation, pollution and introduction of alien species. Existing global databases of species’ threat status ...
Food Legume Nurseries: International Nursery Report 1982/83
The main objective of the program is to provide a mechanism for the multi-location testing of the genetic material of chickpea, faba beans, and lentils originating from national and International programs.
The testing aims ...
The FIGS (Focused Identification of Germplasm Strategy) Approach Identifies Traits Related to Drought Adaptation in Vicia faba Genetic Resources
Efficient methods to explore plant agro-biodiversity for climate change adaptive traits are urgently required. The focused
identification of germplasm strategy (FIGS) is one such approach. FIGS works on the premise that ...
Genome-wide analysis reveals the extent of EAV-HP integration in domestic chicken
Background: EAV-HP is an ancient retrovirus pre-dating Gallus speciation, which continues to circulate in modern
chicken populations, and led to the emergence of avian leukosis virus subgroup J causing significant economic ...
Changes in allele frequencies in landraces, old and modern barley cultivars of marker loci close to QTL for grain yield under high and low input conditions
Changes in alleles frequencies of marker loci linked to yield quantitative trait loci (QTL) were studied in 188 barley entries (landraces, old and modern cultivars) grown in six trials representing low and high yielding ...
Safeguarding a global seed heritage from Syria to Svalbard
Crop diversity underpins food security and adaptation to climate change. Concerted conservation efforts are needed to maintain and make this diversity available to plant scientists, breeders and farmers. Here we present ...
Participatory approach to common use grazing management in dry area developing countries
Most rangelands in developing countries are grazed in common, usually overgrazed and severely degraded, producing much less forage than potential. Use rights vary depending upon the region: from completely free access (open ...
