QTL identifcation for Ascochyta blight resistance and its application in chickpea breeding
Ascochyta blight (AB), caused by Didymella rabiei regularly occurs in epidemic
form causing heavy yield and quality losses, and thus is a major biotic constraint to
chickpea production, particularly in the cool and wet ...
QTLs for barley yield adaptation to Mediterranean environments in the ‘Nure’ 3 ‘Tremois’ biparental population
Multi-environment trials represent a highly
valuable tool for the identification of the genetic bases of
crop yield potential and stress adaptation. A Diversity
Array Technology"-based barley map has been
developed in the ...
Impacts of Public, Private, and R&D Investments on Total Factor Productivity Growth in Tunisian Agriculture
The paper analyzes the patterns of productivity and economic growth in Tunisian agriculture during the period 1981–2007. A regression approach is used to test the hypotheses that government-funded research, development and ...

Performance Indicators for Wastewater Reuse Systems in Gaza Governorates
The purpose of the study was to apply performance indicators on wastewater reuse in the Palestinian Territories
(Gaza) to assess on the impact of waste water and grey water projects on the ambient environment, labor costs
and ...
Capturing the Heterogeneity of the Error Variances of a Group of Genotypes in Crop Cultivar Trials
Appropriate experimental designs provide an efficient estimate of cultivar performance by allowing better control of experimental error. The standard approach assumes homogeneity of experimental error variances across ...
