Screening of lentil genotypes for resistance to Bean yellow mosaic virus and effect of mixed infection on the susceptibility of some resistant lentil genotypes
A total of 100 lentil genotypes were evaluated for their reaction to a Syrian isolate (SV205-85) of Bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV, genus Potyvirus, family Potyviridae) under field conditions during 2010/2011 growing season. ...
Parameterization of the Effect of Bench Terraces on Runoff and Sediment Yield by Swat Modelling in a Small Semi-Arid Watershed in Northern Tunisia
In Tunisia, Soil and Water Conservation (SWC) interventions are among the most practicable strategies to prevent and mitigate rainwater losses through surface runoff and consequential erosion of fertile soils. In this ...
Effect of drought, heat and their interaction on the growth, yield and photosynthetic function of lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) genotypes varying in heat and drought sensitivity
Rising temperatures and drought stress limit the growth and production potential of lentil (Lens culinarisMedikus), particularly during reproductive growth and seed filling. The present study aimed to (i) investigate the ...
Optimizing cotton irrigation regime using climatic data from mini weather station via evapotranspiration in the Fergana Valley, Uzbekistan (in Russian)
Irrigated agriculture is the backbone of Central Asian economies and efficient
irrigation management is of crucial importance to the sustainable crop production. The ET-based irrigation scheduling method has potential to ...
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 ...
Identification of potential rainwater-harvesting sites for the sustainable management of a semi-arid watershed
In the present study, the potential locations for constructing different water-harvesting structures in a semi-arid watershed located at Goparajpalli, in southern India, were derived using GIS in three stages. The locations ...
Amélioration de la production des plantes haploïdes et haploïdes doublés utilisant la culture des anthères du blé
The production of haploids and double haploids, are widely used techniques in advanced breeding programs to speed-up the
production of homozygote lines. Anther culture is one of the processes of induction and regeneration ...
A reliable and non-destructive method for estimating forage shrub cover and biomass in arid environments using digital vegetation charting technique
Despite the importance of fodder shrubs to small ruminant diets and production in arid and semiarid ecosystems, they are often not considered when quantifying grazing land potential. This oversight is mainly due to the ...
Watershed Management in South Asia: A Synoptic Review
Watershed management (WSM) is the most widely adopted technology in developed as well as developing countries due to its suitability across climatic conditions. Watershed technology is suitable to protect and enhance soil ...
The use of AMMI model for interpreting genotype x environment interaction in durum wheat
Durum wheat (Triticum durum) is one of the most important cereal crops in the Mediterranean region; however, its cultivation suffers from low yield due to environmental constrains. The main objectives of this study were ...
