Yield gain due to fungicide application in varieties of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum) resistant and susceptible to leaf rust
In three independent experiments in Turkey and Kazakhstan, winter wheat germplasm with variable degrees of resistance to leaf rust was subjected to fungicide protection. The yield loss of genotypes susceptible to leaf rust ...
Proline content as a stress indicator to quantify conservation agriculture effect in wheat crop
The field study was conducted to evaluate the effect of tillage, crop residue retention and crop rotationon proline concentration in flag leaves of wheat as an important factor influencing future grain quality and yield ...
Economic efficiency measures and its determinants for irrigated wheat farms in Tunisia: a DEA approach
The objectives of this study are twofold. Firstly, we aim to measure the technical,
scale and economic efficiencies for a sample of 170 cereal farmers in Chebika region
(Central Tunisia) using Data Envelopment Analysis ...
Priming effect of 13C-labelled wheat straw in no-tillage soil under drying and wetting cycles in the Loess Plateau of China
he objectives of this study were to determine the effects of drying and wetting (DW) cycles on soil organic carbon (SOC) mineralisation and on the priming effect (PE) induced by the addition of 13C-labelled wheat straw to ...
Genotype × environment interaction and stability of grain yield and selected quality traits in winter wheat in Central Asia
High grain yield and improved quality determine the commercial success of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) varieties in
Central Asia. This study was conducted to determine the effect of environment on grain yield, ...
New resistance sources to Russian wheat aphid (Diuraphis noxia) in Swedish wheat substitution and translocation lines with rye (Secale cereale) and Leymus mollis
Russian wheat aphid is an important pest in many wheat growing countries of the world. Different resistance genes to the pest have previously been identified. However, some biotypes of the pest are virulent to most of these ...
Genotype by environment interaction effects on plant height of wheat genotypes carrying rht 8 dwarfing gene
Twenty-five bread wheat genotypes (G), earring Rht 8 dwarfing gene, selected from Facultative and Winter Wheat Observation Nursery for Semiarid Environments (FAWWON-SA) of International Winter Wheat Improvement Program ...
Physiologic specialization of Puccinia triticina in Syria
Leaf rust, caused by Puccinia triticina Eriks., is one of the major diseases of wheat in Syria. Surveys of durum wheat fields were carried out in all durum wheat growing regions in Syria during 2010. A total of 120 samples ...
Morphological characterization of some Tunisian bread wheat (TriticumaestivumL.) accessions
Seventy four Tunisian bread wheat accessions were characterized using seven morphological traits: spike color, spike shape, spike density, beak shape, beak length, glume shoulder shape, grain color and grain size. Accessions ...
A SNP marker for the selection of HfrDrd, a Hessian fly-response gene in wheat
The HfrDrd gene has been reported to be induced specifically in the wheat's defence response to Hessian fly larvae and is not a general stress-responsive gene. The gene is located on chromosome 7DS with a homeologue on ...
