Evaluation of ICARDA barley germplasm for resistance to spot blotch (Bipolaris sorokiniana) in India
Cultivation of resistant varieties is considered to be the cheapest way to combat plant diseases
particularly in developing countries where most of the barley farmers are marginal and unable to
afford costly fungicides. ...
Wide range of genetic variabilrty for herbicide tolerance in Faba bean
Weeds have emerged as major constraint to faba bean productivity. A study was caried out to evaluate
faba bean lines to post-emergence herbicides with 210 g a.i.lha Metribuzin (photosynthesis inhibitor, PI), 82 ga.i.lha ...
Effect of sowing date and seed treatment on food legume insects
In Morocco food legume crops are attacked by a number of insect pests. Among the important pests are
Sitona weevil and Stem borer on faba bean and pea aphid on lentil. Seed treatment with systemic
insecticides is becoming ...
Genome wide association analysis for stripe rust resistance in barley seedlings and adult plant stage in India
Barley stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. hordei, PSH) occurs worldwide and is a major fungal
disease in barley in Southern Asia. In order to identify and the estimate effects of loci underlying
quantitative resistance ...
Evaluation of exotic barley germplasm against yellow rust in India
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is an important cereal crop in India currently being cultivated in 0.67
m ha with production of 1.6 m tonnes. The crop suffers from many foliar diseases with yellow rust
(Puccinia striiformis ...
Economic Impact of Lentil Cultivation on Marginal and Small Farm Households in Eastern India
An unsatisfactory gain in pulse productivity since last six decades in India emerges
severe threat to the overall food and nutritional security and also resilient livelihood of the
nation. Due to failure of National Food ...
Integrated pest management of food legume insect pests in North Africa, West and Central Asia
Food legumes (chickpea, lentil, faba bean) are important crops in North Africa, West and Central Asia
(CWANA). However, their production is adversely affected by a number of insect pests such as chickpea
Leaf miner and Pod ...
GGE biplot model for environmental delineation and identification of resistant sources for stripe rust and spot blotch in India
Stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. hordei) and spot blotch (Bipolaris sorokiniana) are major
biotic constraints in yield maximization in barley in India. Stripe rust is wide spread in different
agro-ecologies of India ...
Land Tenure, climate change and livestock mobility in Central and Southern Asian Grasslands
the conference paper describes the current effects of climate change on Central and Southern Asia Grasslands, present status of tenure and livestock mobility and explores the future effects of CC and potential mitigation ...
Advances, challenges and opportunities in cool-season food legumes in dry area
Cool-season food legumes (chickpea, lentil, faba bean, field pea, and grass pea) are an integral part of subsistence farming in dry areas because these crops are a great source of nutritious food, feed, and income to small ...
