Enhancing the performance of regional land cover mapping
Different pixel-based, object-based and subpixel-based methods such as time-series analysis, decision-tree, and different supervised approaches have been proposed to conduct land use/cover classification.However, despite ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Tillage system and genotype effects on early vigor and water use in bread wheat in the Mediterranean region
The southern part of the Mediterranean basin is among the regions that are characterized by recurrent
droughts and it is threatened by the effects of climate change. To deal with these problems in wheat,
improved techniques ...
Improving breeding efficiency through application of appropriate experimental designs and analysis models: A case of lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus subsp. culinaris) yield trials
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus subsp. culinaris) is an important staple pulse and rich source of protein, especially to the economically resource-poor consumers of the developing world. Experimental and analytic technology ...
Financial incentives: Possible options for sustainable rangeland management?
Large-scale mismanagement of natural resources emanating from lack of appropriate policies and reg- ulatory framework is arguably one of the reasons that led to resource degradation and poor livelihoods in many countries ...
Breeding and genomics status in faba bean (Vicia faba)
Faba bean is an important legume crop because of its high‐yield potential and nutrition‐dense grains. There have been significant achievements in faba bean improvement in the last four decades, which led to the doubling ...
A Participatory GIS Approach to Identify Critical Land Degradation Areas and Prioritize Soil Conservation for Mountainous Olive Groves (Case Study)
Climate change scenarios predict an
increase in the frequency of heavy rainfall events in
some areas. This will increase runoff and soil erosion,
and reduce agricultural productivity, particularly on
vulnerable mountainous ...
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 ...
