Adoption and impacts of improved varieties and seed demand analysis
There is very limited information about the national level adoption of improved wheat varieties in Morocco. With the exception of some estimates based on secondary data, the same is true for household, regional and national ...
Technical Report on Cereal Crops Breeding
this trainings aimed to train young wheat breeders from Afghanistan and regional countries in recent classical and molecular techniques for cereals (wheat) breeding, and to increase working collaboration with Afghan NARS ...
Report on PhD training on “Modelling bioeconomic diversity of wheat-based systems: Typology analysis and soil-crop simulations using APSIM”
The objective of this training is to reflect on the wide diversity of wheat-based systems in
Tunisia and North Africa. It also aims at providing a set of tools to analyze this diversity as
well as to understand yield gaps ...
Harvest index is a critical factor influencing the grain yield of diverse wheat species under rain-fed conditions in the Mediterranean zone of southeastern Turkey and northern Syria
Environmental and plant factors critical to the grain yields of bread (Triticum aestivum L.), durum (T. durum L.) and emmer (T. dicoccum L.) wheat cultivars were investigated at two Mediterranean rain-fed eld sites: Adana ...
Optimizing Winter Wheat Resilience to Climate Change in Rain Fed Crop Systems of Turkey and Iran
Erratic weather patterns associated with increased temperatures and decreasing rainfall pose unique challenges for wheat breeders playing a key part in the fight to ensure global food security. Within rain fed winter wheat ...
Social Stabilization through Comprehensive Agricultural Support for Refugee Host Communities in Lebanon: Rainfed Agriculture
This poster made for workshop 1 "Improving agriculture and water productivity" under "Social Stabilization through Comprehensive Agricultural Support for Refugee Host Communities in Lebanon" project
Wheat production and breeding in Sub-Saharan Africa: Challenges and opportunities in the face of climate change
Purpose – This paper aims to review the current status of wheat production, farming systems, production constraints and wheat demand-supply chain analysis; the role of international and national breeding programs and their ...
Enhancing Food Security in Arab Countries
A research for development initiative working across ten countries to raise wheat production and reduce the Arab World’s growing dependence on costly wheat imports.
Economic and food security benefits associated with raised-bed wheat production in Egypt
Countries in the West Asia and North Africa (WANA) region are dependent on imports of wheat to meet their food security
needs. Mechanized raised-bed wheat production is an effective means of increasing productivity and ...
Genetic and transcriptional variations in NRAMP‑2 and OPAQUE1 genes are associated with salt stress response in wheat.
The dissection of the genetic and molecular components of salt stress response offers strong opportunities toward understanding and improving salt tolerance in crops. In this study, GWAS was employed to identify a total ...
