Influence of crop rotation and liming on greenhouse gas emissions from a semiarid soil
Semi-arid lands represent one fifth of the global land area but our understanding of greenhouse gas fluxes from these regions is poor. We investigated if inclusion of a grain legume and/or lime in a crop rotation altered ...
Tillage system and genotype effects on early vigor and water use in bread wheat in the Mediterranean region
The southern part of the Mediterranean basin is among the regions that are characterized by recurrent
droughts and it is threatened by the effects of climate change. To deal with these problems in wheat,
improved techniques ...
Genome-Wide Association Mapping For Five Major Pest Resistances In Wheat
Insect pests cause substantial damage to wheat production in many wheat-producing areas of the world. Amongst these, Hessian fly (HF), Russian wheat aphid (RWA), Sunn pest (SP), wheat stem saw fly (WSSF) and cereal leaf ...
Physiological races of Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici in Iran and evaluation of seedling resistance to stem rust in Iranian wheat cultivars
Seedling assessment of 13 stem rust samples collected from southwest of Iran revealed that three collections were virulent for Sr31 and Sr38. Physiological races of RTRTC, HRCTC, RRTTF, TTPTC, TTTQF, JTHTC and TTKSK were ...
Combined effect of tillage system, supplemental irrigation and genotype on bread wheat yield and water use in the dry Mediterranean region
Approaches that can help reduce future water shortages and increase food production in the
Mediterranean region include the capture of more rainwater and better use of scarce irrigation water.
The objective of this study ...
Urediospores of rust fungi are ice nucleation active at > −10 °C and harbor ice nucleation active bacteria
Various features of the biology of the rust fungi and of the epidemiology of the plant diseases they cause illustrate the important role of rainfall in their life history. Based on this insight we have characterized the ...

Allelic variation at Glu-1 loci and its association with grain quality of wheat grown in an irrigated hot environment
The high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) are important determinants of wheat flour quality. The HMW-GS patterns of the major released wheat cultivars in Sudan, in addition to some advanced lines, were analyzed ...
Impact Of Climate Change On Wheat Productivity In Central Asia
Climate change (CC) may pose a challenge to agriculture and rural livelihoods in Central Asia, but in-depth studies are lacking. To address the issue, crop growth and yield of 14 wheat varieties grown on 18 sites in key ...
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 ...
