Genetic diversity in upland cotton for cotton leaf curl virus disease, earliness and fiber quality
In Pakistan during last two decades the major factor
limiting cotton production is cotton leaf curl virus disease (CLCuD). For
estimation of genetic diversity regarding CLCuD tolerance, fiber quality
and some yield ...
Cropping systems strategy for effective management of Fusariumwilt in safflower
tIn many parts of India intensive cultivation of safflower on Vertisols appears to have aggravated theproblem of Fusarium wilt in safflower due to the soil borne fungus, Fusarium oxysporum Schlecht f. sp.carthami Klisiwiez ...
Biological nitrification inhibition in sorghum: the role of sorgoleone production
Background and aims Nitrification and denitrification
are the two most important processes that contribute to
greenhouse gas emission and inefficient use of nitrogen.
Suppressing soil nitrification through the release of ...
Development of specific primers for the detection of HVA1 from barley in transgenic durum wheat by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology
Genetic transformation is a widely employed tool in both basic research and commercial plant breeding
programs. Its application requires that transgenes be stably integrated and expressed in the plant
genome. When transgenic ...
Bayesian estimation of heritability and genetic gain for subsets of genotypes evaluated in a larger set of genotypes in a block design
There are situations in which a number of inbred lines are found grouped into classes, depending on their origin
and phenology. Interest in such situations lies in the estimation of genotypic variations between the genotypes ...
EVOLUTIONARY POPULATIONS: Living gene banks in farmers’ fields
Rapidly increasing on-farm biodiversity is a matter of
urgency in an era of climate change. Farmers often have
limited access to genetic resources. Not only do they need
greater access to the genetic material in research ...
A 50-m Forest Cover Map in Southeast Asia from ALOS/ PALSAR and Its Application on Forest Fragmentation Assessment
Southeast Asia experienced higher rates of deforestation than other continents in the 1990s and still was a hotspot of forest
change in the 2000s. Biodiversity conservation planning and accurate estimation of forest carbon ...
Summer-growing perennial grasses are a potential new feed source in the low rainfall environment of southern Australia
In the Mallee region of southern Australia, the dry and variable climate results in frequent summer–autumn feed
gaps, restricting the profitability of farms that combine livestock and crop enterprises. To assess the ...
Assessing the Effectiveness Of Land Restoration Interventions In Dry Lands By Multitemporal Remote Sensing - A Case Study in Ouled Dlim (Marrakech, Morocco)
Atriplex nummularia has been extensively planted in Northern Africa to combat desertification. However, few studies evaluated the effectiveness of these interventions. This study aimed at assessing the dynamic performance ...
