Assessment of on-farm conservation of dryland agrobiodiversity and its impact on rural livelihoods in the Fertile Crescent
The Fertile Crescent encompasses a mega-center of diversity of crops and livestock of global importance. The
International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) coordinated a 5-year regional project
funded ...
Genome-wide association mapping of frost tolerance in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)
Background: Frost tolerance is a key trait with economic and agronomic importance in barley because it is a major
component of winter hardiness, and therefore limits the geographical distribution of the crop and the ...
QTLs for barley yield adaptation to Mediterranean environments in the ‘Nure’ × ‘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 ...
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 ...
Improved method for detecting Ustilago nuda in barley seed
Loose smut of barley (Ustilago nuda) is a seed-borne fungal disease in which the
fungus is located inside the embryo. The transmission of this disease is highly likely
in the field through seed exchange because the seed ...
Variation at the vernalisation genes Vrn‑H1 and Vrn‑H2 determines growth and yield stability in barley (Hordeum vulgare) grown under dryland conditions in Syria
The objective of the present study was to identify
QTL influencing agronomic performance in rain-fed
Mediterranean environments in a recombinant inbred line
(RIL) population, ARKE derived from the Syrian barley
landrace, ...
Variation At The Vernalisation Genes Vrn-H1 And Vrn-H2 Determines Growth And Yield Stability In Barley (Hordeum Vulgare) Grown Under Dryland Conditions In Syria
Spring growth in barley controlled by natural variation at Vrn-H1 and Vrn-H2 improved yield stability in marginal Syrian environments. The objective of the present study was to identify QTL influencing agronomic performance ...
Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in HSP17.8 and Their Association with Agronomic Traits in Barley
Small heat shock protein 17.8 (HSP17.8) is produced abundantly in plant cells under heat and other stress conditions and
may play an important role in plant tolerance to stress environments. However, HSP17.8 may be ...
Differential impacts of climate variability on yields of rainfed barley and legumes in semi-arid Mediterranean conditions
Climate change has emerged as a major concern for crop production. This study used a field experiment to examine the differential yield responses of barley, lentil, common vetch, and bitter vetch to weather in the Mediterranean ...
Farmer'S Seed Sources And Seed Quality: 2. Seed Health
The study assessed the health quality of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) seed samples collected from formal and informal sector in Ethiopia and Syria. In Ethiopia, several seed-borne fungi were ...
