Durum wheat is a staple and industrial food of many dryland farming systems. ICARDA breeding program has delivered since 1977 germplasm adapted to these farming systems achieving over 150 varieties released in 23 developing ...
Genome Wide Association Mapping of Net Form Net Blotch resistance in Barley reveals multiple disease resistance loci for resistance to biotrophic and necrotrophic pathogens
The net form net blotch (NFNB) caused by Pyrenophora teres f. teres (Ptt) is an emerging barley
disease in several countries. It causes severe yield and quality losses due to infection of leaves, kernels,
and stems. Owing ...
