Bayesian estimation of heritability and genetic gain for subsets of genotypes evaluated in a larger set of genotypes in a block design
There are situations in which a number of inbred lines are found grouped into classes, depending on their origin
and phenology. Interest in such situations lies in the estimation of genotypic variations between the genotypes ...
Understanding and Managing Aflatoxin Contamination in the Groundnut Value Chain in Nigeria
This manual is conceived to support awareness raising campaigns of the groundnut value chain actors in and out of the States targeted
for the implementation of the USAID funded Groundnut Technology Upscaling Project in ...
A community model for evaluating the impact of policy, technology and property rights changes in the low rainfall areas of Morocco
Attempting to improve resource management in the low rainfall areas (LRAs) of the WANA region primarily through technological change is often impeded by non-technical problems related to farmers' risk behavior, insecure ...

Gender focus: Prioritizing the needs of women farmers
The ICARDA CARAVAN magazine dedicates the whole issue of June 2015 to research on women in agriculture. One article is dedicated to the CRP Dryland Systems Gender Strategy. Karin Reinprecht has been interviewed for this ...
Understanding photothermal interactions will help expand production range and increase genetic diversity of lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.)
Lentil is a staple in many diets around the world and growing in popularity as a quick‐cooking, nutritious, plant‐based source of protein in the human diet. Lentil varieties are usually grown close to where they were bred. ...
Genetic diversity and structure in Egyptian indigenous sheep populations mirror patterns of anthropological interactions
Human exchange networks are instrumental in influencing gene flow among domesticates. Here, we investigated levels of within- and between-population genetic diversity in 289 animals from six indigenous sheep populations ...
Rangeland Biodiversity and Climate Variability: Supporting the Need for Flexible Grazing Management
Resting or grazing exclusion is an effective practice widely adopted to restore degraded, arid rangelands. To understand its effect on plant diversity, we studied Hill’s diversity indices during two growing seasons ...
