Seed Info No. 40
Seed Info aims to stimulate information exchange and regular communication among seed staff in the Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region. The purpose is to help strengthen national seed programs and thus ...
Ex-ante nutrition security impacts of Research and Technology Options for Grain Legumes and Dryland Cereals in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia
In this report, GLDC technologies were assessed and ranked based on their potential impact on nutrition security. Key findings suggest that in west and central Africa, the technologies with the largest positive impacts on ...
Seed Unit Annual Report 1991
To strengthen seed programs in West Asia and North Africa the Governments of the Netherlands and the Federal Republic of Germany are funding ICARDA's Seed Unit (project: "Development of National Seed Production Organizations ...
Proportion of total nitrogen and fixed nitrogen in shoots of lentil and chickpea grown in a Mediterranean-type environment
Shoot dry matter yield, shoot nitrogen yield and amount of nitrogen derived from fixation are collated for chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) cv. ILC482 and lentil (Lens culinaris Medic.) cv. ILL8 grown at the ICARDA research ...
Genetic Variation for Tolerance to Herbicide Imazethapyr in Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.)
Identification of lentil genotypes tolerant to post-emergence herbicides and incorporation of herbicide tolerance in to high yielding varieties can prove a boon for developing effective integrated weed management strategy ...
Legumes in rice-based cropping systems
A WOCAT factsheet regarding: Legumes in rice-based cropping systems.
In India, 29 percent of the area cropped with rice remains fallow during the dry "rabi" season. This offers the opportunity to improve farm income and ...
Identification of machine harvestable lentils with herbicide tolerance
Sixty-six machine harvestable lentil lines were evaluated in two separate yield trials along with three checks at two locations, Marchouch in Morocco and Terbol in Lebanon, during 2019. Based on good standing ability, ...
Assessment of long-term barley–legume rotations in a typical Mediterranean agro-ecosystem: grain and straw yields
Traditional Mediterranean rainfed cereal/fallow systems are being replaced by cereal monoculture due to land-use pressure. Food or forage legumes in rotation with cereals are an alternative sustainable cropping system. ...
Germplasm Program Legumes Annual Report 1995
This report summarizes the key accomplishments and efforts of the Germplasm Program Legumes at the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) in 1995.
Relevance of limited-transpiration trait for lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) in South Asia
Drought is one of the most important environmental factors that limit crop production. It has been hypothesized that a limited-transpiration trait under high vapor pressure deficit (VPD) is a mechanism for water conservation ...
