Molecular and phenotypic diversity of ICARDA spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) collection
Plant breeders are interested in using diverse genotypes in hybridization that can segregate for traits of importance with possibility of selection and genetic gain. Information on molecular and agro-morphological diversity ...
Genome Wild Association Studies for New Traits
Two GWAS panels were assembled that represent a sample of Jordanian barley landraces accessions (150 landraces) for drought tolerance and yield and a collection of ICARDA elite material (288 lines) for disease resistance ...
Efficient Callus Induction and Plantlets Regeneration in Durum Wheat Using Mature Embryos
The use of mature embryos as explants to initiate cultures is a best alternative to save time and costs, especially for producing somatic embryos for genetic transformation of durum wheat. However, plantlets regeneration ...
Malt barley research in India and future prospects
Malt barley improvement in India was initiated with several introductions viz. Peatland, Pedigree,
Manchuria, Odessa, Clipper, Golden Promise, Midas etc. but these varieties could not popularize due to
late maturity, low ...

Survey and disease monitoring in focal countries
The cropping season of 2015-16 has been exceptionally dry with severe drought. During the disease survey occasionally low incidence of net blotch, spot blotch and scald was observed.
It is important to note that the ...
Importance du BYDV sur orge et avoine en Tunisie et évaluation de l'infection virale sur leur qualité fourragère
Les céréales sont considérées comme des cultures stratégiques en Tunisie de par leur importance économique et les emblavures qu’elles occupent. Les maladies virales plus particulièrement le virus de la jaunisse nanisante ...
Novel sources of resistance to stripe rust in ICARDA barley germplasm
Stripe rust of barley (Puccinia striiformis Westend. f. sp. Hordei) occurs worldwide and host resistance is
the most economically and environmentally appropriate option as the use of fungicides is not very common
in low ...
Economic Impact of International and National Lentil Improvement Research in Developing Countries
Lentils, one of humanity’s oldest food crops, originated in the Fertile Crescent of the Near East (Webb and Hawtin, 1981). As a food, lentils provide valuable protein and, unlike several other food legumes, few anti-nutritional ...
Association of KASP markers with Hessian fly resistance in wheat of diverse origin
Hessian fly (Mayetiola destructor (Say)) is a major pest in wheat producing areas of United States,
Canada, Europe, and North Africa but has not been found in Australia. Host plant resistance is thought to
involve a similar ...
