Genome-wide association mapping of frost tolerance in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)
Background: Frost tolerance is a key trait with economic and agronomic importance in barley because it is a major
component of winter hardiness, and therefore limits the geographical distribution of the crop and the ...
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 ...
Measuring the effectiveness of extension innovations for out-scaling agricultural technologies
Low adoption levels of agricultural technologies undermine the impacts of national and international agricultural research. Using a combination of an ordered logit and Heckman selection models and a case study from an ...
Genetic differentiation in Pyrenophora teres f. teres populations from Syria and Tunisia as assessed by AFLP markers
To investigate the level of genetic differentiation and diversity among
Pyrenophora teres isolate populations originating from different agro-ecological
areas of Syria and Tunisia and to determine the potential of AFLP ...
Agricultural Activity concept for simulating strategic agricultural production decisions: Case study of weed resistance to herbicide treatments in South-West France
In an uncertain socio-economic and climatic context, sustainable farming is a major challenge for farmers as well as for their agricultural advisors. It is therefore essential to develop a decision support tool (DST) that ...
Comparative Biology and Life Cycle of The Barley Stem Gall Midge and Hessian fly (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) in Morocco
The barley stem gall midge, Mayetiola hordei (Keiffer) is the most serious pest of barley in
Morocco. The biology and life cycle of this insect were studied in a laboratory and under
natural weather conditions. The results ...
Widening the Genetic Base of Indian Barley Through the Use of Exotics
The genetic base of improved varieties is becoming increasingly narrow due to the commonness of one or more parents in their ancestry. Thus, improved varieties may become vulnerable to the diseases, insect-pests and other ...
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 ...
Economic analysis and environmental impacts of water harvesting techniques in the low rainfall areas of Jordan
Water harvesting has become an important priority for supporting
the increasing population in the low rainfall areas of Jordan. The specific
objectives of this paper are to assess the economic and environmental impacts
of ...
