Efficiency of marker-assisted selection in detection of ascochyta blight resistance in Tunisian chickpea breeding lines
Ascochyta blight (AB) resistance reactions were studied in 23 chickpea cultivars, mainly advanced
lines and Tunisian varieties from the Tunisian chickpea breeding program, growing both at two locations and
under controlled ...
Water and land productivities of wheat and food legumes with deficit supplemental irrigation in a Mediterranean environment
Selecting appropriate crops and applying deficit irrigation can help increase water productivity in waterlimited
regions such as the Mediterranean. The objective of this study was to develop water production
functions of ...
Susceptibility of some Chickpea accessions to infestation with leaf miner Liriomyza cicerina Rondani and its impact on yield
The susceptibility of some chickpea accessions to infestation with leaf miner Liriomyza cicerina Rondani was studied at the International Centre for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), Aleppo, Syria. Eight ...
Pathogenic and genetic diversity of Didymella rabiei affecting chickpea in Syria
Simple sequence repeats and mating type markers were used to estimate the genetic diversity of 133
Didymella rabiei isolates collected from nine provinces of Syria. Moreover, phenotyping was done on 56
isolates randomly ...
Exploitation of wild annual Cicer species for widening the gene pool of chickpea cultivars
Introgression of unadapted genes from the wild Cicer species could
contribute to the widening of genetic base of important traits such as
yield, yield attributes and resistance to major biotic and abiotic stresses.
An ...
Evaluating the Productivity Potential of Chickpea, Lentil, and Faba bean under Saline Water Irrigation Systems.
The information on salinity threshold levels for food legumes when irrigating with saline water is limited and old. In a multiyear
study at two sites in the Euphrates Basin, we aimed at (i) evaluating the potential of ...
Sustainable management of chickpea pod borer. A review
The pod borer [Helicoverpa armigera Hubner
(Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)] is responsible for causing up to 90%
damage in chickpea due to its regular occurrence from the vegetative
growth to the pod formation stage. In order to ...
Genetic analysis for seed size in three crosses of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
Seed size (determined by 100-seed weight) is an
important component of trade and yield in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). The present investigation was undertaken to
study the possibility of maternal inheritance for seed ...
First Report of Cucurbit aphid-borne yellows virus Affecting Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) in Sudan
A total of 204 chickpea samples with symptoms typical of virus infection including stunting, yellowing, necrosis, reddening, and tip wilting were collected during February 2013 and March 2015 from 14 chickpea fields located ...
Effects of tillage and time of sowing on bread wheat, chickpea, barley and lentil grown in rotation in rainfed systems in Syria
Cropping systems in the drylands of west Asia are characterized by grazing, burning or harvesting of stub-bles, multiple cultivations and late sowing, which can limit yields and lead to soil erosion and degradation.There ...
