Winder Barley Program
Winter Barley Nurseries have been planted in 4 different locations in Turkey in 2015-16 crop growing season. The altitudes in locations change from 359 m asl in Sanliurfa to 1069 m asl in Konya and the coordinates change ...
Explore options for screening sorghum varieties for drought adaptation specifically for Sahelian growing conditions (sandy soils, low P)
In lysimetric system, 28 landraces and improved varieties from Burkina and Niger were assessed for response to low phosphorus and water deficit in complete randomized bloc design with 5 replications. Low phosphorus (LP) ...
Conduct Participatory variety and hybrids selection trials across target agro-ecologies in Kenya, Tanzania, Ethiopia
In singida district, variety with tied ridges had mean grain yield of 2.017 t ha-1 compared to 1.596 t ha-1 for variety without tied ridges which was a 26% yield advantage. Varieties ASARECA 24-4-1 (1.983 t ha-1) and IESV ...
Monitor virulence spectrum of pearl millet downy mildew (DM) and blast pathogen populations through on-farm surveys and disease nurseries
DM and blast severity was assessed in the farmers’ fields in Maharashtra, India to monitor the performance of different hybrids. Pearl millet downy mildew virulence nursery (PMDMVN) consisting of 70 test entries including ...
Training of trainers of partners and staekholders in barley production and seed technology
Three levels of training were implemented by the project: i) Training-of-trainers (ToT) for technical staff from partner institutions undertaken by ICARDA; ii) Training-of-trainers (ToT) for technical staff from partner ...
Refine calibrations of NIRS of sorghum for stover and rgran tarits
Grain and fodder qualities are key traits for sorghum breeding in West-Africa (WA). Phenotyping of these qualities are challenging and requires high throughput technologies to tackle the number of progenies that are handled ...
Documentation of performances of at least 10 seed cooperatives in Mali
Seed producer cooperatives involved directly in different projects with ICRISAT and IER in Mali as partners were targeted for this activity. These cooperatives were trained from 2014 to 2016 on seed production techniques, ...
Study mechanism of blast resistance in pearl millet
For inheritance studies, a set of nine pearl millet genotypes; seven resistant (ICMB 93333, ICMB 97222, ICMB 02444, ICMR 06444, ICMR 06222, ICMR 11003 and IP 21187) and two susceptible (ICMB 95444 and ICMB 89111) were ...
Early generation seed production of barley in Ethiopia and Iran
Availability of and access to basic of improved varieties remains a stumbling block for barley in most developing countries. Early generation seed (breeder, pre-basic and basic) was produced by NARS through a bilateral ...
