Wheat Zapper: a flexible online tool for colinearity studies in grass genomes
In the course of evolution, the genomes of grasses have maintained an observable degree of gene order conservation. The information available for already sequenced genomes can be used to predict the gene order of nonsequenced ...
Role of geoinformatics in ensuing global food security with special reference to dryland agroecosystems
Agriculture plays an important role in providing
food security in developing countries. Better agricultural
information is one of the key factors in understanding current
trends and status that determine food security from ...
Water balances and evapotranspiration in water and dry‐seeded rice systems
Rice is a crop that is usually grown under flooded conditions and can require large amounts of water. The objective of this 3-year study was to quantify water use in water- (WS) and dry-seeded (DS) systems. In WS systems, ...
Genome-wide Analysis of Small Ruminant Tolerance to Grazing Stress Under Arid Desert
There are three major hot and dry deserts in North America, all located in the Western United States and Northern Mexico. Desert areas are facing serious environmental challenges, most importantly drought and water shortages ...
Effect of flushing frequency on emitter clogging in microirrigation with effluents
Flushing is an important maintenance task that removes accumulated particles in microirrigation
laterals that can help to reduce clogging problems. The effect of three dripline flushing frequency
treatments (no flushing, ...
Breeding faba bean for resistance to Ascochyta blight
Ascochyta blight (Didymella fabae Jellis and Punithalingam)
is one of the most important foliar diseases that
affect the quality and seed yield of faba bean (Vicia faba
L.) worldwide. Breeding for resistance to Ascochyta
blight ...
Food Legume Nurseries: International Nursery Report 1980/81
The main objective of the program is to provide a mechanism for the multi-location testing of the genetic material of chickpea, faba beans, and lentils originating from national and International programs.
The testing aims ...
Wheat
Wheat is one of the most important staple crops of global food and nutritional security. The demand for wheat has been increasing substantially with the increasing human population pressure. Wheat genetic resources including ...
Long-run evaluation of fertilization strategies for dryland wheat in Northcentral Oregon: Simulation analysis
Farmers commonly apply fixed ‘blind’ quantities of nitrogen fertilizer during the fallow or at seeding in rainfed winter wheat-fallow systems in Northcentral Oregon, an area characterized by high year-to-year variation in ...
