Variation of faba bean genotypes to different Orobanche crenata biotypes in Egypt
Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is an important grain legume in East Asia and North Africa. faba bean productivity is severely affected by broomrapes. Resistant varieties to Orobanche have different responses to different Orobanche ...
Yield and nutritive quality of Hedysarum coronarium across three different agro-climatic zones of northern Tunisia
Sulla (Hedysarum coronarium L.) is commonly included in the cropping system as a short-rotation forage crop (one to three years) in northern Tunisia. Thus, this study compared DM production and nutritive value of sulla ...
Investigating root system architectural traits in durum wheat to improve adaptation to drought and crown rot conditions
Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum) producers can experience significant yield and grain losses due to crown rot (CR) disease, caused primarily by a fungal pathogen Fusarium pseudograminearum. Losses due to CR ...
