Training and Surveillance Support for Wheat Rust Diseases in Central Asia and Near East: Field-based assessment of wheat rust pathogenic variability (Trap Nurseries)
Under the FAO-ICARDA initiative on Training and Surveillance Support for Wheat Rust Diseases, 132 sets of International Rust Trap Nurseries of yellow, stem, and leaf ruts was distributed to the 10 supported countries. The ...
Cost of conserving genetic resources at ex Situ genebanks: an example of the ICARDA genebank
This study estimates the costs of conserving cereals (wheat and barley), forage legumes, and food legumes (chickpea, lentil, and faba bean) in the gene bank maintained by ICARDA and compares the results with those derived ...
Genotypic and location effect on grain protein content of barley under sub-tropical climates
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is a very ancient grain and is considered as a sacred grain the Indian culture.
However, over the years the area and production of barley decreased in India mainly because of availability
of ...
Implementing breeding programs for high- & low-input, spring and winter barley
The breeding program was implemented in four countries viz. Lebanon (Terbol & AUB), Morocco (Rabat, Jemma Shaim, Allal Tazi), India (Amlaha) and Mexico (Toluca/ Obregon) to fulfil the objectives. More than 1800 new crosses ...

Lignes directrices pour faciliter l'adoption de variétés céréalières améliorées par les femmes dans les cultures sexospécifiques
Women in the Global South play significant roles in farming but face inequalities in access to resources, land and extension support (3,4,5). Their roles in farming cereals, often perceived as male crops, are especially ...
Association and multivariate analysis of yield and its components in hulless barley (Hordeum vulgare L)
Hulless or naked barley is an important cereal crop in the high altitude areas of Himalayas in India. Now-adays,
it is becoming popular as human food due to presence of higher beta glucan content, since healthy
effects of ...
Barley
Barley being the earliest domesticated cereal is one of the major world crops today. Wide adaptation of barley to ecogeographic conditions and higher response to low input and stressful environments make it globally ...
