Maintaining production in water-scarce environments
Can conservation agriculture deliver for farmers across the Arab World?
Assessment of Drought and Heat Tolerance of Durum Wheat Lines Derived from Interspecific Crosses Using Physiological Parameters and Stress Indices
Drought and high temperature are the major abiotic stresses for wheat production. The present study investigated the effect of drought and chronic heat stress on physiological parameters of durum wheat lines derived from ...
Reliable high-throughput Phenotyping Tools to assess Adaptive Traits for Wheat in Drought Environments
This project successfully demonstrated the value of ICARDA’s elite drought nurseries for the CWANA region and highlighted the opportunity to breed for specific adaptations. The great environmental diversity of the CWANA ...
Analysis of mRNA Levels of Ten Genes Under Water Stress in Triticum turgidum subsp. durum
Drought is one of the major causes of dramatic yield loss in crop plants. Plants perceive and respond to stress.
Upon perception of stress, a signal is communicated to downstream components resulting in change of gene
expression ...
Experiment set-up: Silicon pot-experiment at Guich station, year 1
This is the first progress report of the Silicon-related component of the research, on the effects of bio-available Silicon on the drought tolerance of Bread Wheat genotypes.
Wheat Breeding at ICARDA: Updates on Strategies and Achievements
Polyploids (like wheat and cotton) have genomes that are similar but different enough that they
behave genetically like a diploid. They are designated as allopolyploid or disomic polyploids. Polyploids (like alfalfa and ...
Development of specific primers for the detection of HVA1 from barley in transgenic durum wheat by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology
Genetic transformation is a widely employed tool in both basic research and commercial plant breeding
programs. Its application requires that transgenes be stably integrated and expressed in the plant
genome. When transgenic ...
