Tracking Adoption of Improved Barley Varieties in Ethiopia
Report on Tracking Adoption of Improved Barley Varieties in Ethiopia
QTLs for barley yield adaptation to Mediterranean environments in the ‘Nure’ 3 ‘Tremois’ biparental population
Multi-environment trials represent a highly
valuable tool for the identification of the genetic bases of
crop yield potential and stress adaptation. A Diversity
Array Technology"-based barley map has been
developed in the ...
Growing More Olives with Less Water
Despite the importance of olive
production in Morocco and Syria,
the absence of modern production
methods such as irrigation prevent
the sector from reaching its full
potential. Although widespread
water-scarcity in North ...
Performance Indicators for Wastewater Reuse Systems in Gaza Governorates
The purpose of the study was to apply performance indicators on wastewater reuse in the Palestinian Territories
(Gaza) to assess on the impact of waste water and grey water projects on the ambient environment, labor costs
and ...
Community Seed Production
Workshop Proceedings 9-11 December 2013
Genetic Diversity in Lens Species Revealed by EST and Genomic Simple Sequence Repeat Analysis
Low productivity of pilosae type lentils grown in South Asia is attributed to narrow genetic
base of the released cultivars which results in susceptibility to biotic and abiotic stresses.
For enhancement of productivity ...
Groundwater resources in the Jabal Al Hass region, northwest Syria: an assessment of past use and future potential
In many cases, the development of groundwater resources to boost agricultural production in dry areas has led to a continuous decline in groundwater levels; this has called into question the sustainability of such exploitation. ...
Managing Soil Salinity in the Lower Reaches of the Amudarya Delta: How to Break the Vicious Circle
This case study focuses on the vicious circle of soil
salinization: agriculture’s consumption of large
amounts of water contributes to shallow groundwater,
leading to recurring soil salinity, which in
turn demands more ...
Priming effect of 13C-labelled wheat straw in no-tillage soil under drying and wetting cycles in the Loess Plateau of China
he objectives of this study were to determine the effects of drying and wetting (DW) cycles on soil organic carbon (SOC) mineralisation and on the priming effect (PE) induced by the addition of 13C-labelled wheat straw to ...
Phenotypic diversity of Greek dill (Anethum graveolens L.) landraces
Dill has multiple culinary and medicinal purposes and the use of their landraces into a plant
breeding program, requires the analysis of their phenotypic diversity. In this study, 33 Greek dill
landraces collected from ...
