Seed Info No. 53
Seed Info aims to stimulate information exchange and regular communication among seed staff in the Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region and beyond. Its purpose is to help strengthen national seed programs ...
How can financial incentives enhance agricultural development?
Financial incentives clearly have a role to play in sustainable development strategies. However, incentives alone will not work –a favorable enabling environment and institutional arrangements are also required to enhance ...
Sélection de lignées d’orge (Hordeum vulgare L.) pour leur résistance au barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) et évaluation de leurs performances agronomiques
Le virus de la jaunisse nanisante de l’orge ou « barley yellow dwarf virus » (BYDV) est connu comme étant le virus le plus important se répandant sur les céréales. En Tunisie, les contaminations peuvent dépasser 40 % sur ...
Changes in barley (Hordeum vulgare L. subsp. vulgare) genetic diversity and structure in Jordan over a period of 31 years
In many regions of the world, the cultivation of landraces is still common, in particular in centres of crop diversity. Significant effort has been put into ex situ conservation of landraces but limited data exist on the ...
Constitution, multiplication and supply of 9 different international nurseries _ Annual Report 2015
International Nursery seed production and distribution for testing and selection under co-operators' own agro environment and socio economic context, globally.
Assessment of genetic diversity and yield performance in Jordanian barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) landraces grown under Rainfed conditions
Background: Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is a major cereal crop, which is cultivated under variable environmental conditions and abiotic stresses in marginal areas around the globe. In this study, we evaluated 150 Jordanian ...
Genetic variations of HvP5CS1 and their association with drought tolerance related traits in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)
Delta-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthase gene1 (P5CS1) is the key gene involved in the biosynthesis of
proline and is significantly induced by drought stress. The exploration of genetic variation in HvP5CS1
may facilitate ...
Towards the conservation of crop wild relative diversity in North Africa: checklist, prioritisation and inventory
Crop wild relatives (CWR) are wild species that are more or less genetically related to crops that can be used to introgress useful genes for improvement of productivity, resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses and quality ...
