Experimental on-farm trials data of faba bean and wheat intercropping field validation in Lebanon and Morocco
This data paper describes the content of four datasets col- lected by the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) as a partner in the project “Designing InnoVative plant teams for Ecosystem ...
Efficiency of different breeding strategies in improving the faba bean productivity for sustainable agriculture
Breeding methods applied to faba bean are either based on self pollination by developing lines under insect proof cages or baed on open pollination by developing lines under natural pollination conditions. The purpose of ...
GIS-Based multi-criteria land suitability mapping for scaling faba bean varieties in Ethiopia
Successful scaling of agricultural technology requires a spatial explicit framework for targeting the right variety at the right place. This entails a multi-criteria evaluation (MCE) approach, using a set of determining ...
Pea seed-borne mosaic virus: occurrence in faba bean (Vicia faba) and lentil (Lens culinaris) in West Asia and North Africa, and further information on host range, transmission characteristics, and purification
In a survey for viruses of cultivated legumes in West Asia and North Africa, pea seed-borne mosaic virus (PSbMV) was found in faba bean, lentil and pea. Using ELISA, it was detected in 107 out of 1554 faba bean samples and ...
Breeding and genomics status in faba bean (Vicia faba)
Faba bean is an important legume crop because of its high‐yield potential and nutrition‐dense grains. There have been significant achievements in faba bean improvement in the last four decades, which led to the doubling ...
First record of Beet western yellows virus, Chickpea chlorotic dwarf virus, Faba bean necrotic yellows virus and Soybean dwarf virus infecting chickpea and lentil crops in Iran
An intensive survey was conducted during May–June, 2001 to identify virus diseases affecting chickpea (Cicer arietinum) and lentil (Lens culinaris) crops in five provinces (Qazvin, Kermanshah, Kurdistan, East Azarbaijan ...
The Natural Occurrence of Chickpea Chlorotic Dwarf Geminivirus in Chickpea and Faba Bean in the Sudan
A survey of faba bean and chickpea for virus infection, conducted during February 1994 in the Sudan, showed that bean yellow mosaic potyvirus and broad bean mottle bromovirus occurred commonly in both crops. Chickpea ...
Simulation of faba bean (Vicia faba L.) root system development under Mediterranean conditions
Root growth of faba bean genotype ILB 1814 grown under both limited and sufficient moisture supply was studied in 1993-1994 and 1994-1995 at ICARDA's Tel Hadya research station. Crops were sown on two dates in both growing ...
Olive agroforestry can improve land productivity even under low water availability in the South Mediterranean
Agroforestry systems can be an effective means of stabilizing or even enhancing crop yields under climate
change. Although trees compete with crops for soil resources in agroforestry, they can also improve crops’
growing ...
Biology of Bruchus dentipes Baudi (Coleoptera: Bruchidae) on Vicia faba and a method to obtain gravid females during the imaginal quiescence period
Bruchus dentipes Baudi was found to have four larval instars, and the sex ratio was very close to 1:1. Both sexes fed on pollen and nectar of faba beans (Vicia faba) for seven days before and throughout the oviposition ...
