Development of EST-SSR markers and construction of a linkage map in faba bean (Vicia faba)
To develop a high density linkage map in faba bean, a total of 1,363 FBES (Faba bean expressed sequence tag
[EST]derived simple sequence repeat [SSR]) markers were designed based on 5,090 non-redundant ESTs
developed in ...
Recombination Among Begomoviruses on Malvaceous PlantsLeads to the Evolution of Okra Enation Leaf Curl Virus in Pakistan
Whitefly transmitted begomoviruses (family Geminiviridae) are the majorreason for significant yield losses of dicotyledonous crops in tropics andsubtropics. Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) is one of the important vegetablecrops, ...
Genetic Diversity Analysis for Earliness, Fiber Quality and Cotton Leaf Curl Virus in Gossypium hirsutum L. Accessions.
In the present set of experiment 159 cotton genotypes that were imported from USA were evaluated for cotton leaf curl
virus disease tolerance, better fiber quality and various yield related traits. For evaluation of these ...
ICARDA’s Strategy 2017-2026 for Biometrics and Statistics Support to its Research: Enhancing Research Quality for Innovation and Knowledge Sharing in Biodiversity, Germplasm Enhancement and Sustainable Agri-Food Systems
This document describes the goals and objectives of Biometrics and Statistics Section
(BSS), highlights current status and the challenges in the changing agricultural landscape
to sustainably support the livelihood and the ...
Xanthium strumarium: a weed host of components of begomovirus-betasatellite complexes affecting crops
Xanthium strumarium is a common weed that often shows symptoms typical of begomovirus infection, such as leaf curling and vein thickening. The virus complex isolated from the weed consisted of two begomoviruses along with ...
Cotton Germplasm of Pakistan
The economy of Pakistan relies heavily on cotton, which contributes ~60% of total foreign
exchange earnings (US$ 15 billion in 2012/13). Cotton is grown on about three million hectares
annually with average lint production ...
Estimation of genetic variability for Cotton leaf curl virus disease, fiber quality and some morphological traits using multivariate analysis in exotic Gossypium (Diploid and tetraploid) species
This study was designed to evaluate the germplasm imported from USA for cotton leaf curl virus, fiber quality and yield components. Seventy nine cotton genotypes were evaluated using statistical procedures such as correlation ...
Nutrients Can Enhance the Abundance and Expression of Alkane Hydroxylase CYP153 Gene in the Rhizosphere of Ryegrass Planted in Hydrocarbon-Polluted Soil
Plant-bacteria partnership is a promising strategy for the remediation of soil and water polluted with hydrocarbons. However, the limitation of major nutrients (N, P and K) in soil affects the survival and metabolic activity ...
Artificial microRNA-mediated resistance against the monopartite begomovirus Cotton leaf curl Burewala virus
Background: Cotton leaf curl disease, caused by single-stranded DNA viruses of the genus Begomovirus (family Geminiviridae), is a major constraint to cotton cultivation across Pakistan and north-western India. At this time ...
Diversity in Betasatellites Associated with Cotton Leaf Curl Disease During Source-To-Sink Movement Through a Resistant Host
Cotton leaf curl is devastating disease of cotton characterized by leaf curling, vein darkening and enations. The disease symptoms are induced by DNA satellite known as Cotton leaf curl Multan betasatellite (CLCuMuB), ...
