Lentils (Lens Culinaris L.): Linking whole foods for better human health
The failure to link current agricultural production with human nutritional needs has
led to the development of unhealthy food systems, which cause both malnutrition and
chronic diseases. Malnutrition is responsible for ...
Breeding faba bean for resistance to Orobanche spp: past research and future orientation
Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is one of the important pulse crops grown in
many parts of the world. Its production and productivity are affected by different
biotic and abiotic stresses. Broomrape (Orobanche and Phelipanche ...
Genetic Variation for Tolerance to Herbicide Imazethapyr in Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.)
Identification of lentil genotypes tolerant to post-emergence herbicides and incorporation of herbicide tolerance in to high yielding varieties can prove a boon for developing effective integrated weed management strategy ...
Genetic Analysis of Grain Yield and it's Components for some Populations of Faba Bean
The recurrent selection was applied on four F2 populations of faba bean at Terbol research station (ICARDA)- Lebanon, during 2013 summer season, advanced F3 populations were evaluated during 2013-2014 winter season to ...
Improving breeding efficiency through application of appropriate experimental designs and analysis models: A case of lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus subsp. culinaris) yield trials
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus subsp. culinaris) is an important staple pulse and rich source of protein, especially to the economically resource-poor consumers of the developing world. Experimental and analytic technology ...
Selecting Lentil Accessions for Global Selenium Biofortification
The biofortification of lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus.) has the potential to provide adequate daily selenium (Se) to human diets. The objectives of this study were to (1) determine how low-dose Se fertilizer application ...
Wide range of genetic variabilrty for herbicide tolerance in Faba bean
Weeds have emerged as major constraint to faba bean productivity. A study was caried out to evaluate
faba bean lines to post-emergence herbicides with 210 g a.i.lha Metribuzin (photosynthesis inhibitor, PI), 82 ga.i.lha ...
Breeding and genomics status in faba bean (Vicia faba)
Faba bean is an important legume crop because of its high‐yield potential and nutrition‐dense grains. There have been significant achievements in faba bean improvement in the last four decades, which led to the doubling ...
Susceptibility of some Chickpea accessions to infestation with leaf miner Liriomyza cicerina Rondani and its impact on yield
The susceptibility of some chickpea accessions to infestation with leaf miner Liriomyza cicerina Rondani was studied at the International Centre for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), Aleppo, Syria. Eight ...
Herbicide tolerance Faba bean, chickpea and lentils
The research aimed to screen faba bean, Chickpea and lentils to diverse herbicides. 50 lentil genotypes were screened to Imizathapyr and Metribuzin; 226 Chickpea lines screened to Imizathapyr and Metribuzin, among them 100 ...
