SSR analysis of introgression of drought tolerance from the genome of Hordeum spontaneum into cultivated barley (Hordeum vulgare ssp vulgare)
Wild barley (Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum) and landraces are important sources of resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses since they possess wide genetic diversity that may be missing in current elite varieties. In ...
Yield Gaps, Varietal Adoption, and Seed Commercial Behaviour: Barley Seed System Landscape in the Highlands of Ethiopia
Barley is among the major food security crops in the highlands and industrial commodity for the emerging brewery industry. This paper documents the current productivity levels, varietal adoption and seed commercial behaviors ...
Alternative Hosts of Yellow Dwarf Viruses (YDVs) and Sources of Resistance in Barley in Ethiopia
Diseases are key biotic constraints facing barley production in many countries. One of the key
diseases group is yellow dwarf viruses (YDVs). Alternative hosts play an important role in the
epidemiology of YDVs. Studies ...
Genetic diversity of Ethiopian faba bean (Vicia faba) varieties based on phenotypic traits and ISSR markers
Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is one of the earliest food legumes of Ethiopia used as source of high protein
for human and animal consumptions. Many cultivars are released from local and exotic sources targeting
different ...
Multi-Environment Trial Analysis of Food Barley in Ethiopia using AMMI and GGE Biplot methods
Food barley released varieties were tested in 2012 for performance across major environments in Ethiopia consisting of 12 varieties Diribe, Tilla, Abbay, Biftu, Defo, Dinsho, Mulu, Setegn, Misiratch, Basso, Mezezo and local ...
Survey and disease monitoring in focal countries
The cropping season of 2015-16 has been exceptionally dry with severe drought. During the disease survey occasionally low incidence of net blotch, spot blotch and scald was observed.
It is important to note that the ...
