Genetic diversity assessment of Ethiopian tetraploid wheat landraces and improved durum wheat varieties using microsatellites and markers linked with stem rust resistance
A set of 77 markers was used to describe the genetic diversity in a group of 58 tetraploid wheat accessions. Analysis was performed using 31 neutral SSR markers, 31 SSR/STS markers linked with reported major stem rust ...
First Phase Activities Report on Ph.D. Research Fellowship (Sufian Suliman Mohammed), from 10 March-10 June 2013
The aim of this Ph.D. study is to introduce high-molecular-weight glutenin subunit combination “5+10” into some Sudanese wheat cultivars for improve the bread-making quality under heat stress conditions, using marker ...
Guidelines for Facilitating Women’s adoption of Improved Cereal Varieties in Sex-segregated Cultures
Women in the Global South play significant roles in farming but face inequalities in access to resources, land and extension support (3,4,5). Their roles in farming cereals, often perceived as male crops, are especially ...
Report on PhD training on “Modelling bioeconomic diversity of wheat-based systems: Typology analysis and soil-crop simulations using APSIM”
The objective of this training is to reflect on the wide diversity of wheat-based systems in
Tunisia and North Africa. It also aims at providing a set of tools to analyze this diversity as
well as to understand yield gaps ...
Wheat Barley and Triticale Newsletter - RACHIS - No. 13(1&2)
The RACHIS information service has been initiated by ICARDA to meet the information needs of barley, wheat and triticale research workers in the Near East and North Africa region. RACHIS seeks to report research results ...
Assessing technological change in agri-food systems of the Global South: A review of adoption-impact studies in wheat
Agricultural research-and-development (R&D) systems generate and disseminate new technologies, aiming to enhance crop and livestock production sustainably. Adoption-impact studies analyze farmer acceptance of these innovations ...
Use of Conservation Agriculture in Crop-Livestock Systems (CLCA) in the Drylands for Enhanced Water Use Efficiency, Soil Fertility and Productivity in NEN and LAC Countries – Project Progress Report: Year I - April 2018 to March 2019
The CLCA project goal is to sustainably increase production and enhance climate resilience of small farmers’ communities and their crop-livestock production systems in drylands. To develop in participation with smallholder ...
