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 ...
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 ...
Improving wheat production in the CWANA region
Wheat is the principal staple food in most countries of the Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region, accounting for 45% of the region’s per capita calorie intake with an average wheat consumption of about 200 ...
Wheat breeding for multiple stress tolerance at ICARDA: Achievements and prospects
Wheat is the principal food crop in Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region with average consumption of 200 kg/capita/year. The productivity of wheat in the region is very low (2.5 t/ha) principally due to ...
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. ...
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 ...
Approaches and Strategies for sustainable wheat production
This handbook provides practical information on wheat production. It aims to inform the work of policy makers, agriculture agencies, extension agents, non-governmental organizations, universities and research organizations, ...
Capturing the Heterogeneity of the Error Variances of a Group of Genotypes in Crop Cultivar Trials
Appropriate experimental designs provide an efficient estimate of cultivar performance by allowing better control of experimental error. The standard approach assumes homogeneity of experimental error variances across ...
Wheat
Wheat is one of the most important staple crops of global food and nutritional security. The demand for wheat has been increasing substantially with the increasing human population pressure. Wheat genetic resources including ...
Genome-wide association study of agronomy and morphology and morphology traits in elite spring wheat Germplasm evaluated under salt stress conditions in Egypt
Soil salinity is a long-term issue that needs addressing by developing tolerant cultivars. Today,
genome-wide association studies (GWAS) is a preferred tool for quantitative trail loci detection for
different traits. Ten ...
