Performance of Barley Lines Selected under Drought Stressed Conditions and Ultra-Low Density
Rainfall and temperature are unpredictable in Mediterranean environments, which result in irregular
environmental conditions for crop growth and a critical source of uncertainty for farmers. In this study,
selected barley ...
Genome-Wide Association Studies Of Multiple Traits in Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is one of the most important cereals worldwide. It is grown
mainly for animal feed and malt but it is also used for food in several regions across the globe.
There is a constant need for breeding ...
Genome-wide association studies of net form of net blotch resistance at seedling and adult plant stages in spring barley collection
Net form of net blotch (NFNB) of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), caused by Pyrenophora teres f. teres (Ptt) Drechsler (anamorph: Drechslera teres [Sacc.] Shoem.), is considered one of the major constraints of successful barley ...
Supplemental Irrigation: A promising Climate-Smart Practice for Dryland Agriculture
Supplemental irrigation - the addition of
limited amounts of water to essentially
rainfed crops to improve and stabilize
yields when rainfall fails to provide
sufficient moisture for normal plant
growth - is an effective ...
Seedling and adult stage resistance to spot form of net blotch (SFNB) in spring barley and stability of adult stage resistance to SFNB in Morocco
The aims of this study were to identify resistance to spot form of net blotch (SFNB) in spring barley and to investigate the stability of SFNB resistance in Morocco. The seedling resistance to SFNB was evaluated by inoculating ...
Evaluation report “Feed resource innovation platforms” in Tunisia
The report shows the implementation of an innovation platform (IP) discussing feed resources. It also looks at the different successes and challenges the IP and the IP approach faces in Tunisia, in particular the question ...
Genome wide association studies (GWAS) of spot blotch resistance at the seedling and the adult plant stages in a collection of spring barley
Spot blotch (SB) in barley is caused by the fungal pathogen Cochliobolus sativus and considered one of the major constraints to successful barley production. Resistance to C. sativus was evaluated, using a barley collection ...
Report on the production and marketing of new barley variety undertaken by forage seed multiplying cooperatives and private seed enterprises
ICARDA and INRAT (tunesian NARS) have developped a new drought tolerant barley variety, called Kounouz. This variety has been sold to two large seed cooperatives and one seed company for multiplication. The report describes ...
Short introduction video on Mind the Gap project
The film shows major objective and activities of the "Mind the Gap" project in Tunisia. The research project wants to find out the impact of different extension approaches on the adoption of innovations.
Strengthening the capacity of early-career researchers: Investments to secure the future productivity and resilience of dryland agriculture
Capacity strengthening is central to ICARDA’s mission: it delivers quality research and development impact and ensures that agricultural investments are sustainable over the long-term. Targeting young scientists is especially ...
