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 ...
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 ...
Efficient and sustainable production of faba bean
Faba bean is mainly grown under rain-fed conditions, although irrigated production is important in Egypt, parts of China and Central Asia. China is the leading producer with a wide range of intensive rotation and inter-crop ...
