Seed Info No. 50
Seed Info aims to stimulate information exchange and regular communication among seed staff in the Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region and beyond. Its purpose is to help strengthen national seed programs ...
Control of Helminthosporium leaf blight of spring wheat using seed treatments and single foliar spray in Indo-Gangetic Plains of Nepal
Four fungicides for seed treatments and one as foliar spray were tested in replicated field experiments in
a strip plot design to determine the effect of fungicides on Helminthosporium leaf blight (caused by
Cochliobolus ...
Genome wide association mapping of stripe rust resistance in Afghan wheat landraces
Mining of new genetic resources is of paramount importance to combat the alarming spread of stripe rust disease and breakdown of major resistance genes in wheat. We conducted a genome wide association study on 352 un-utilized ...

QTL mapping identifies a major locus for resistance in wheat to Sunn pest (Eurygaster integriceps) feeding at the vegetative growth stage
Sunn pest (Eurygaster integriceps Puton) is the most destructive insect pest of bread wheat and durum wheat in West and Central Asia and East Europe. Breeding for resistance at the vegetative stage of growth is vital in ...
Training and Surveillance Support for Wheat Rust Diseases in Central Asia and Near East: In-Country Rust Surveillance
Through the FAO-ICARDA initiative on Training and Surveillance Support for Wheat Rust Diseases, technical backstopping, guidelines and financial support were provided to facilitate national in-country rust surveillance in ...
Modeling the soil-water-crop-atmosphere system to improve crop and water productivity in Stage II of Indira Gandhi Canal Command Area
The study entitled “Modelling the Soil-Water-Crop-Atmosphere System to Improve Land and Water Productivity in Stage II of IGNP” was carried out at village Amarpura (Bajju), Bikaner, Rajasthan, during 'kharif' and 'rabi' ...
Genetic Diversity of Bread Wheat Lines Based on Agro-morphological Traits
Twenty spring bread wheat genotypes (G) from eleven research centers in Pakistan were included in national uniform wheat yield trial (NUWYT) conducted at the Agriculture Research Farm of The University of Agriculture, ...
Relative Yield, Profit and Water Productivity of Crops in IGNP Stage-I
The choice of an appropriate crop and cropping systems is essential for achieving
higher yield, profit and resource use efficiencies. Yield, returns and water productivity
are important factors for determining suitability ...
