Productivity and nitrogen use of three different wheat-based rotations in North West Syria
Productivity of 3 different 2-year crop rotations, namely continuous wheat, wheat-chickpea, and wheat-fallow, was measured over 4 consecutive seasons beginning in 1991-92 at the ICARDA station, Tel Hadya, Syria. Nitrogen ...
Survey for legume and cereal viruses in Libya
A field survey was conducted during March and April 2010, to identify viral diseases affecting cereal and legume crops in different regions of Libya. A total of 3706 barley and wheat samples were collected randomly in ...
Use of climatic parameters to predict the global distribution of Ascochyta blight on chickpea
Climatic data of areas where chickpea (Cicer arietinum) is grown were analyzed by stepwise discriminant analysis to identify parameters that allow a discrimination of locations with and without occurrence of Ascochyta ...
Genetics of Resistance to Ascochyta Blight in Four Chickpea Lines
Inheritance of resistance to race 3 of Ascochyta blight (Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Lab.), an important disease in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), was studied in four resistant lines at ICARDA in Syria from 1983 to 1986. The ...
Assessment of Chickpea (Cicer Arietinum) Grain Quality and Losses in Direct Combine Harvesting
An experiment was conducted at the International Center for Agricultural Research in Dry Areas (ICARDA) to test the effect of several combine harvester settings on returns of two chickpea varieties ILC 482 and ILC 3279 ...
Integrating Sowing Date with Chickpea Genotypes in Managing Fusarium Wilt in Morocco
Integrating Sowing Date with Chickpea Genotypes in Managing Fusarium Wilt in Morocco: Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.p ciceris (Foc) is a devastating soil-borne disease of the chickpea. The disease causes ...
Integrated transcriptome, small RNA and degradome sequencing approaches provide insights into Ascochyta blight resistance in chickpea
Ascochyta blight (AB) is one of the major biotic stresses known to limit the chickpea production worldwide. To dissect the complex mechanisms of AB resistance in chickpea, three approaches,namely, transcriptome, small RNA ...
Characterization and mapping of sequence-tagged microsatellite sites in the chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) genome
A size-selected genomic library comprising 280,000 colonies and representing approximate to 18% of the chickpea genome, was screened for (GA)(n), (GAA)(n) and (TAA)(n) microsatellite-containing clones, of which 389 were ...
Effectiveness of soil solarization for control of Heterodera ciceri and Pratylenchus thornei on chickpea in Syria
A field experiment was conducted during summer 1989 to investigate the effect of soil solarization on the control of Heterodera ciceri and Pratylenchus thornei and yield of chickpea (Cicer arietinum) in Syria. The soil ...
Phytosanitary management of ICARDA’s germplasm seed collections for safe movement and better future use
Germplasm exchange from international genebanks and breeding programs is vital for successful crop improvement programs. More than 10,000 different accessions of wheat, barley, lentil, faba bean, chickpea, grasspea, and ...
