Use of Conservation Agriculture in Crop-Livestock Systems (CLCA) in the Drylands for Enhanced Water Use Efficiency, Soil Fertility and Productivity in NEN and LAC Countries – Project Progress Report: Year (II) – April 2019 to March 2020
2nd Annual Progress Report [April 2019 to March 2020] for the IFAD-Funded CLCA Project: “Use of Conservation Agriculture in Crop-Livestock Systems (CLCA) in the Drylands for Enhanced Water Use Efficiency, Soil Fertility ...
Phenotypic characterization of Tunisian sheep breeds for resistance to abomasal parasites
The aim of this work is to study the genetic resistance of the Barbarine sheep to GIN infestation. This is a preliminary paper about the phenotypic measurements that were collected and compiled in a single phenotype database. ...
Use of Conservation Agriculture in Crop-Livestock Systems (CLCA) in the Drylands for Enhanced Water Use Efficiency, Soil Fertility and Productivity in NEN And LAC Countries: Completion Report – Appendix
The supplementary tables appendix of the completion report of the project titled “USE OF CONSERVATION AGRICULTURE IN CROP-LIVESTOCK SYSTEMS IN THE DRYLANDS For Enhanced Water Use Efficiency, Soil Fertility and Productivity ...
Phenotypic and Molecular Characterization of Small Ruminant Breeds in Libya - Field Guide. التوصيف المظهري والجزيئي لسلالات المجترات الصغيرة في ليبيا – الدليل الحقلي
The Field Guide for Phenotypic and Molecular Characterization of Small Ruminant Breeds in Libya is intended to support animal scientists and technicians in collecting accurate data and applying appropriate sampling procedures ...
Genome variation in tick infestation and cryptic divergence in Tunisian indigenous sheep
Background: Ticks are obligate haematophagous ectoparasites considered second to mosquitos as vectors and reservoirs of multiple pathogens of global concern. Individual variation in tick infestation has been reported in ...
Use of Conservation Agriculture in Crop-Livestock Systems (CLCA) in the Drylands for Enhanced Water Use Efficiency, Soil Fertility and Productivity in NEN and LAC Countries – Progress Highlights: Year (3) - April 2020 to March 2021
The brief highlights the most important achievements of the IFAD funded CLCA Project in North Africa (Tunisia, Algeria) and LAC (Mexico & Bolivia) countries during its third year (April 2020 – March 2021). The brief presents ...
Genomic footprints of dryland stress adaptation in Egyptian fattail sheep and their divergence from East African and western Asia cohorts
African indigenous sheep are classified as fat-tail, thin-tail and fat-rump hair sheep. The fat-tail are well adapted to dryland environments, but little is known on their genome profiles. We analyzed patterns of genomic ...
Genome-Wide Scans Reveal Multiple Selection Sweep Regions in Indigenous Sheep (Ovis aries) from a Hot Arid Tropical Environment
Animals living in extreme environments demonstrate the adaptive resiliency of species to diverse ecosystems. This research suggests that the possible selection pressures shaping the genome architecture of the study populations ...
3rd Coordination and Project Closing Meeting (CPCM) Final Agenda
3rd Coordination and Project Closing Meeting (CPCM) Final Agenda- “Integrated Crop-Livestock Conservation Agriculture for Sustainable Intensification of Cereal-based Systems in North Africa and Central Asia” project
Valuation of Goat Traits in Pastoral and Agro-Pastoral Livelihood Systems in Southern Ethiopia
Pastoralists and agro-pastoralists depend heavily on their livestock. The animals serve as source of food, cash income, inputs for crop production, security, store of value, and social recognition. Ethiopia is endowed with ...
