Food Legume Improvement Program 1988
The crop improvement research was done at the principal research station of ICARDA at Tel Hadya, as well as at several subsites in northern Syria (Breda, Jinderess, and Lattakia) and Lebanon (Terbol). Weather condition ...
Food Legume Nurseries: International Nursery Report 1993/94
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 ...
Control of Heterodera Ciceri by Crop rotation
A field experiment in Syria in 1986-1991 tested the efficacy of six four-year crop rotations for the control of Heterodera ciceri on chickpea and grasspea. Crop sequences included cultivation of non-host crops (barley and ...
Wild Cicer species in Chickpea Improvement
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L) is one of the most important cool food season legumes grown in Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA). Although substantial research has been done for the improvement of the crop, major ...
Patterns of Resistance and Susceptibility to Races of Ascochyta rabiei Among Germ Plasm Accessions and Breeding Lines of Chickpea
To identify sources of resistance to the six races of Ascochyta rabiei reported from Lebanon and Syria, 1,069 germ plasm accessions and breeding lines were screened against the races in the greenhouse at Tel Hadya, Syria, ...
Evaluation of a World Collection of Chickpea Germ Plasm Accessions for Resistance to Ascochyta Blight
A world collection of 9,574 desi and 3,836 kabuli germ plasm accessions of chickpea (Cicer arietinum) was evaluated for Ascochyta blight (Ascochyta rabiei) resistance at the International Center for Agricultural Research ...
Ties that Bind: ICARDA and the Arab World
Since its establishment, the International Center for Agricultural research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), based in Aleppo, Syria, has worked side by side with scientists and technicians in all parts of the Arab world to not ...
Chickpea Evaluation for Cold Tolerance under Field Conditions
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) yields are higher when plantings are made in early winter in the Mediterranean region instead of during the traditional spring season, but winter killing is often a problem. Cold tolerant ...
Screening of Some Chickpea Genotypes for Salinity Tolerance in a Mediterranean Environment
To understand the mechanisms that affect the response to salinity of legumes, six chickpea genotypes
were tested in sand-filled pots in the greenhouse. The chickpea seeds were irrigated with water of four
different ...
Food Legume Nurseries: International Nursery Report 1978/79
This report summarises the data received from scientists who cooperate with the food legume improvement (FLIP) at ICARDA, for the 1978/79 crop season on replicated yield trials,non-replicated screening, and disease nurseries ...
