Dataset for describing the diversity of household farming systems and the degree of crop-livestock diversification and integration in the Western part of Nile valley (Egypt)
The CLIMED household farm dataset comes from a data collection conducted from 2013 to 2014 in five zones of the New Reclaimed Lands in the western part of the Nile Delta (Egypt). The main objective was to describe the ...
Genome-wide association study for agronomic and physiological traits in spring wheat evaluated in a range of heat prone environments
We undertook large-scale genetic analysis to determine marker-trait associations (MTAs) underlying agronomic and physiological performance in spring wheat using genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Field trials were ...
Identification and validation of a core set of informative genic SSR and SNP markers for assaying functional diversity in barley
A 'core set' of 28 simple sequence repeat (SSR) and 28 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers for barley was developed after screening six diverse genotypes (DGs) representing six countries (Afghanistan, Pakistan, ...
Mitochondrial DNA variation reveals maternal origins and demographic dynamics of Ethiopian indigenous goats
The Horn of Africa forms one of the two main historical entry points of domestics
into the continent and Ethiopia is particularly important in this regard. Through the
analysis of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) d-loop
region ...
Genome-wide association study for adult plant resistance to yellow rust in spring bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
Yellow rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, is a common and serious fungal disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) all over the world and particularly in the Central and West Asia and North Africa region. ...
Association Analysis of Genotypic and Phenotypic Traits Using SSR Marker in Durum Wheat
In durum wheat, marker-trait associations were studied for six agronomic
traits using a set of 25 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers , with a set of 40 wheat
genotypes including drought, semi-tolerant and non-drought ...
Phenotypic assessment of bread wheat genotypes under salt stress using multivariate analysis
Salinity stress affects bread wheat as one of the major cereal crops. Phenotyping elite bread wheat
germplasm has high importance for its effective utilization in breeding programs. The objectives of
the present investigation ...
The Contribution of Mobile Pastoral Herds to Soil Fertility Maintenance in Sedentary Mixed Crop-Livestock Systems at Farm and Territory Scales—Part of Mutually Reinforcing Social and Ecological Relationships Supporting Sustainability
Agricultural development through settlement schemes on desert lands has always raised
acute debates, especially over environmental issues due to cultivation based on intensive
additions of water and fertilizers. However, ...
QTLs for Orobanche spp. resistance in faba bean: identification and validation across different environments
Broomrapes are holoparasitic plants which infect faba bean (Vicia faba L.), among
other legumes. Here, we aimed to identify and validate quantitative trait loci (QTLs)
for broomrape resistance in the cross 29H × Vf136 and ...
First record of Chickpea chlorotic dwarf virus (CpCDV) affecting faba bean (Vicia faba) crops in Egypt
A field visit was conducted in March 2002 to identify viruses infecting the faba bean (Vicia faba) crop in four governorates (Fayoum, Beni Suef, El-Nobareia and Bihera) in Egypt. A total of 71 faba bean samples with symptoms ...
