Big Data for building Inclusive Agroecosystems: Decoding the big-data ecosystems for efficiency, ecology, economy and impact
Big Data is an important topic in Agriculture and also for ICARDA. This presentation is on Big Data for building Inclusive Agroecosystems: Decoding the big-data ecosystems for efficiency, ecology, economy and impact.
Genetic Variation for Tolerance to Herbicide Imazethapyr in Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.)
Identification of lentil genotypes tolerant to post-emergence herbicides and incorporation of herbicide tolerance in to high yielding varieties can prove a boon for developing effective integrated weed management strategy ...
Enhancing Food Security in Arab Countries
A research for development initiative working across ten countries to raise wheat production and reduce the Arab World’s growing dependence on costly wheat imports.
Breeding and genomics status in faba bean (Vicia faba)
Faba bean is an important legume crop because of its high‐yield potential and nutrition‐dense grains. There have been significant achievements in faba bean improvement in the last four decades, which led to the doubling ...
Investing in resilience: addressing climate-induced displacement in the MENA region
Climate change threatens the viability of agriculture, ecosystems, and rural livelihoods in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). In a region where agriculture is a critical source of employment and income, environmental ...
Date Palm Pests and Diseases: Integrated Management Guide
Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) is a major fruit crop in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). The crop’s tolerance to high temperature, drought, and salinity makes it suitable to the harsh environment in the MENA ...
Barley Breeding at ICARDA: from traditional Breeding to genomic selection
This presentation was presented during the training course on Durum wheat Selection program in Lebanon.
Investigating root system architectural traits in durum wheat to improve adaptation to drought and crown rot conditions
Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum) producers can experience significant yield and grain losses due to crown rot (CR) disease, caused primarily by a fungal pathogen Fusarium pseudograminearum. Losses due to CR ...
Resilience assessment of Socio-Ecological Systems in MENA Region: An Application of Tri-Capital Framework in Jordan, Tunisia and Morocco
Drylands of MENA regions have diverse agricultural production systems that are embedded under
more global social-ecological systems (SESs). In order to meet population needs, food production
intensification schemes in this ...
Development of SNP assays for hessian fly response genes, Hfr-1 and Hfr-2, for marker-assisted selection in wheat breeding
Background
The Hessian fly response genes, Hfr-1 and Hfr-2, have been reported to be significantly induced in a Hessian fly attack. Nothing is known about the allelic variants of these two genes in susceptible (S) and ...
