Diversification of indigenous gene- pool by using exotic 5 germplasm in lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus subsp. culinaris)
Genetic diversity was studied among 21 accessions of lentil using SSR markers and morphological traits in order to assess the diversification of Indian gene-pool of lentil through introgression of exotic genes and introduction ...
Do faba bean (Vicia faba L.) accessions from environments with contrasting seasonal moisture availabilities differ in stomatal characteristics and related traits?
Drought is a major constraint to faba bean (Vicia faba L.) production, and there are many mechanisms by which leaves can regulate water loss. Our primary objective was to test if the origin of the faba bean accessions, ...
Genetic analysis for seed size in three crosses of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
Seed size (determined by 100-seed weight) is an
important component of trade and yield in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). The present investigation was undertaken to
study the possibility of maternal inheritance for seed ...
WEED SUPPRESSING ABILITY OF DIFFERENT BREAD WHEAT GENOTYPES IN DRYLANDS OF WESTERN IRAN
A genetic option for increasing wheat production is to reduce menace of weeds through developing
or screening weed tolerant wheat genotypes. To screen bread wheat genotypes tolerant to weeds in
dryland conditions, twenty ...
Policies, Institutions and Economies of Water Resources and Management in the Karkheh River Basin of Iran
This research report addresses researchers, farmers, decision and policy makers and public and private organizations involved in land and water development in the Karkheh River Basin (KRB) of Iran.
Gender Roles in Agriculture: The Case of Afghanistan
Technological interventions aiming to improve livelihoods that bring
gender equity can become successful only when the prevailing gender
roles in society and access to different livelihood opportunities are fully
understood. ...
Screening of kabuli chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) germplasm resistant to Botrytis Gray Mold in Bangladesh
An experiment was carried out at the Pulse Research Sub-Station (PRSS), Madaripur, Bangladesh during three subsequent years of 2008-2009, 2009-2010 and 2010-2011 to screen out the suitable high yielding chickpea varieties ...
The adsorption of Strontium on soils developed in arid region as influenced by clay content and soluble cations
The present work was performed in order to investigate behavior of Sr adsorption in a saline-sodic soil and a
normal soil developed in arid environment in Central Iran.
Seed Info No. 45
Seed Info seeks to stimulate Information exchange and regular communications between seed staff in the Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region and beyond. Its purpose is to help strengthen national seed ...
NARROWING YIELD GAPS THROUGH GENETIC IMPROVEMENT FOR FUSARIUM WILT RESISTANCE IN THREE PULSE CROPS OF THE SEMI-ARID TROPICS
Chickpea, pigeonpea and lentil constitute the major component of low-input agriculture in the semi-arid tropics
(SAT). These pulses play an important role in alleviating malnutrition by way of forming an inseparable ...
