Dinitrogen Fixation and Nitrogen Balance in Cool-Season Food Legumes
Understanding the magnitude of N2 fixation and export of plant N, particularly in the harvested grain and straw, is necessary to assess the potential for grain legumes to contribute to long-term agricultural production ...
Spatial distribution and association of biophysical factors with chickpea chlorotic stunt and pea seed-borne mosaic viruses affecting legume crops in Ethiopia
Food legumes are key commodities produced in sole and mixed cropping system in Ethiopia. Their productivity has been affected recently by virus infections. Field surveys were conducted from 2018/19 to 2021/22 cropping ...
Use of residual fertiliser 15N in soil for isotope dilution estimates of N2 fixation by grain legumes
Estimates of the proportion of nitrogen (N) derived from the atmosphere (pNatm) by chickpea
and lentil in the alternate phase of a cereal–legume 2-year rotation, for each of 3 seasons (1993, 1994,
and 1995) in northern ...
Survey for legume and cereal viruses in Libya
A field survey was conducted during March and April 2010, to identify viral diseases affecting cereal and legume crops in different regions of Libya. A total of 3706 barley and wheat samples were collected randomly in ...
Phytosanitary management of ICARDA’s germplasm seed collections for safe movement and better future use
Germplasm exchange from international genebanks and breeding programs is vital for successful crop improvement programs. More than 10,000 different accessions of wheat, barley, lentil, faba bean, chickpea, grasspea, and ...
Broad bean mottle virus: Identification, host range, serology, and occurrence on faba bean (Vicia faba) in West Asia and North Africa
One of the faba bean viruses found in West Asia and North Africa was identified as broad bean mottle virus (BBMV) by host reactions, particle morphology and size, serology, and granular, often vesiculated cytoplasmic ...
Viruses and Phytoplasma Reported on the Most Important Vegetable Crops in Syria: A Review
Syria is famous for cultivation of many different vegetable crops in most governorates during both winter and summer growing seasons, due to its Mediterranean moderate climate conditions, characterized by a mild winter and ...
Epidemiology and integrated management of persistently transmitted aphid-borne viruses of legume and cereal crops in West Asia and North Africa
Cool-season food legumes (faba bean, lentil, chickpea and pea) and cereals (bread and durum wheat and barley) are the most important and widely cultivated crops in West Asia and North Africa (WANA), where they are the main ...
Comparison of agar and freezing blotter test for detection of Fusarium spp. in seeds of lentil, chickpea and barley
Agar tests with different media and freezing blotter tests were compared for testing lentil, chickpea, and barley seed for Fusarium spp. Recovery of Fusarium spp. from all crops tested was highest by the freezing method. ...
