Diagnostic Tools Applied by ICARDA’s Germplasm Health Unit (GHU) for Detection of Pests and Diseases Transmitted via Legume and Cereal Seeds
Seeds of cereals (wheat, barley) and legumes (faba bean, lentil, chickpea, grasspea) are important exchange materials for farming, crop production, and research at national, regional, and international levels, but with the ...
Experimental on-farm trials data of faba bean and wheat intercropping field validation in Lebanon and Morocco
This data paper describes the content of four datasets col- lected by the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) as a partner in the project “Designing InnoVative plant teams for Ecosystem ...
The Role of ICARDA’s Germplasm Health Unit (GHU) in Improving Plant Health and Safeguarding the Biodiversity of Legume and Cereal Crops
In order to safeguard countries from quarantine risks (insect pests, pathogens, nematodes, parasitic weeds) associated with the movement of legume (faba bean, lentil, chickpea, grasspea) and cereal (wheat and barley) ...
Assessing the Stability of Herbicide-Tolerant Lentil Accessions (Lens culinaris Medik.) under Diverse Environments
Assessing the adaptability and stability of herbicide-tolerant lentil accessions to two broad-spectrum post-emergence herbicides in multi-environment trials has become a must in a breeding program to improve its selection. ...
Phytosanitary Management of ICARDA’s Germplasm Seed Collections for Better Future Use
Recent years have witnessed an increasing global concern about the loss of plant genetic
resources, as a result of conflicts, epidemics, earthquakes, etc., which led to disrupting
access to some germplasm and undermining ...
Conservation of Genetic Resources at ICARDA
ICARDA Genebank holds large and unique collections of crops of global importance including the
mandate crops such as wheat, barley, chickpea, faba bean, lentil and grasspea, along with their crop
wild relatives, as well ...
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 ...
Characterizing Durum Wheat and Barley Landraces for Target Traits in Collaboration with Partner Genebanks
Landraces play a pivotal role in agricultural biodiversity and the preservation of traditional farming practices. These are locally adapted, genetically diverse crop varieties that have evolved over centuries through natural ...
Genomic regions involved in the control of 1,000-kernel weight in wild relative-derived populations of durum wheat
Terminal drought is one of the most common and devastating climatic stress factors affecting durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) production worldwide. The wild relatives of this crop are deemed a vast potential source of ...
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 ...
