Assessment of on-farm conservation of dryland agrobiodiversity and its impact on rural livelihoods in the Fertile Crescent
The Fertile Crescent encompasses a mega-center of diversity of crops and livestock of global importance. The
International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) coordinated a 5-year regional project
funded ...
QTLs for barley yield adaptation to Mediterranean environments in the ‘Nure’ 3 ‘Tremois’ biparental population
Multi-environment trials represent a highly
valuable tool for the identification of the genetic bases of
crop yield potential and stress adaptation. A Diversity
Array Technology"-based barley map has been
developed in the ...
Improved method for detecting Ustilago nuda in barley seed
Loose smut of barley (Ustilago nuda) is a seed-borne fungal disease in which the
fungus is located inside the embryo. The transmission of this disease is highly likely
in the field through seed exchange because the seed ...
Variation at the vernalisation genes Vrn‑H1 and Vrn‑H2 determines growth and yield stability in barley (Hordeum vulgare) grown under dryland conditions in Syria
The objective of the present study was to identify
QTL influencing agronomic performance in rain-fed
Mediterranean environments in a recombinant inbred line
(RIL) population, ARKE derived from the Syrian barley
landrace, ...
Variation At The Vernalisation Genes Vrn-H1 And Vrn-H2 Determines Growth And Yield Stability In Barley (Hordeum Vulgare) Grown Under Dryland Conditions In Syria
Spring growth in barley controlled by natural variation at Vrn-H1 and Vrn-H2 improved yield stability in marginal Syrian environments. The objective of the present study was to identify QTL influencing agronomic performance ...
Farmer'S Seed Sources And Seed Quality: 2. Seed Health
The study assessed the health quality of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) seed samples collected from formal and informal sector in Ethiopia and Syria. In Ethiopia, several seed-borne fungi were ...
Sustainable Agricultural Development of Highlands in Central, West Asia and North Africa
Synthesis of Regional Expert Meeting on Highland Agriculture November 2011, Karaj, Iran.
The objective of this report is to review the current status, constraints and potential of highlands in
Iran, Morocco and Turkey ...
Development of two species-specific primer sets to detect the cereal cyst nematodes Heterodera avenae and Heterodera filipjevi
Twelve Heterodera species are of major economic significance in wheat and barley. Of these, H. avenae, H. filipjevi and H. latipons are among the most important ones, and sometimes coexist. The identification of Heterodera ...
