New durum wheat with Hessian fly resistance from Triticum araraticum and T. carthlicum in Morocco
Hessian fly is an important pest of wheat on the North American continent and the temperate Mediterranean drylands. Yield losses caused by this insect in Morocco are the heaviest in the Mediterranean region and are estimated ...
Genetic Diversity in Durum Wheat Based on RFLPs, Morphophysiological Traits, and Coefficient of Parentage
Estimation of genetic diversity present in gene pools is an important determination for breeding programs. This study was conducted to determine the level of variation in durum wheat cultivars (Triticum turgidum L. var ...
Identification in Aegilops species of resistant sources to Hessian fly (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) in Morocco
Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Say), is the major insect pest of wheat in Morocco. Host plant resistance has been the most effective and practical method of controlling this pest. When 347 accessions of Aegilops species ...
Wheat genetic control of Hessian fly (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) in Morocco
Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Say), causes about 30% yield reduction on both durum wheat and bread wheat in Morocco. Major effort has been put on host plant resistance for control of this pest. Field and greenhouse ...
Dissection of Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL), annotation of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP), and Identification of Candidate Genes for Grain Yield in Triticum turgidum L. var
Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var durum) is among the most important crops in the world. High and stable grain yield in diverse environments is the major objective in durum breeding programs. This trait is linked to ...
‘Nachit’, a wild-relative-derived durum wheat resilient to climate change in Morocco
Morocco, in North Africa, is a country vastly exposed to the whims of climate change,with frequent moisture and heat stresses occurring throughout the season. Hence,developing climate-resilient, high-yielding, and nutritious ...
First source of resistance in durum wheat to Hessian fly (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) in Morocco
Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Say), is the major pest of wheat in North Africa. In Morocco, durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. subsp. durum (Desf). Husn.) losses due to this pest have been estimated at 32%. Genetic ...
