QTL identifcation for Ascochyta blight resistance and its application in chickpea breeding
Ascochyta blight (AB), caused by Didymella rabiei regularly occurs in epidemic
form causing heavy yield and quality losses, and thus is a major biotic constraint to
chickpea production, particularly in the cool and wet ...
Breeding faba bean for resistance to Orobanche spp: past research and future orientation
Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is one of the important pulse crops grown in
many parts of the world. Its production and productivity are affected by different
biotic and abiotic stresses. Broomrape (Orobanche and Phelipanche ...
Improving faba bean (Vicia faba L.) for sustainable agriculture in drylands
Faba bean (Vicia faba) is a major cool season food legume in many countries grown under rainfed and irrigated production systems around the world. Faba bean productivity and production are threaten by abiotic (heat, drought, ...
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 ...
Test of post-emergence herbicide for the control of weeds in food legumes in Sais region, Morocco
Legumes leave significant residual nitrogen in growing in association or in rotation. Among the problems
of food legumes, the unavailability of post-emergence herbicides for the control of weeds. The objective
of this study ...
Walking on the wild side - expanding genetic diversity for future lentil breeding
Systematic use of genetic variability through judicious use of diverse germplasm maximizes genetic gain
per generation, and therefore, maximizes economic value of the crop. Sometime, however, the required
genetic variation ...
North-Africa-ICARDA Partnership on Food Legumes Research for Development: Present Status and Future Strategy
Food legumes are important crops for human food,
animal feed and services for sustainable agriculture.
They are the rich sources of protein and micronutrients,
thus contributing significantly to the health and
nutritional ...
Virulence and molecular diversity within Ascochyta rabiei in Moroccan population and evaluation of genotypic stability on chickpea
Ascochyta blight (Ascochyta rabiei Lab.) is an economically important fungal disease on chickpea in Morocco, and in other parts of the world. Significant progress has been made in breeding chickpea for Ascochyta blight ...
Multi-location testing of a global collection of elite chickpea genotypes to identify stable sources of resistance to Ascochyta blight
Ascochyta blight (AB) of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) caused by Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Lab. is the most devastating disease that limits the productivity and production of chickpea in the world. The lack of high levels ...
