New durum wheat with Hessian fly resistance from Triticum araraticum and T. carthlicum in Morocco
Hessian fly is an important pest of wheat on the North American continent and the temperate Mediterranean drylands. Yield losses caused by this insect in Morocco are the heaviest in the Mediterranean region and are estimated ...
Sources of resistance to Hessian Fly ( Diptera:Cecidomyiidae ) in Syria identified among Aegilops species and Synthetic derived bread wheat Lines
The Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor
(Say), is a major pest of wheat in North Africa,
southern Europe, North America, and northern
Kazakhstan. It is believed this pest (like wheat)
originated in West Asia. The Syrian ...
Genetic identification of loci for Hessian fly resistance in durum wheat
Durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) is a major crop of North Africa. Here, its production is affected by Hessian fly (Mayetiola destructor, HF) epidemics. Genetic resistance against this pest exist, but its molecular basis ...
Identification in Aegilops species of resistant sources to Hessian fly (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) in Morocco
Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Say), is the major insect pest of wheat in Morocco. Host plant resistance has been the most effective and practical method of controlling this pest. When 347 accessions of Aegilops species ...
Wheat genetic control of Hessian fly (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) in Morocco
Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Say), causes about 30% yield reduction on both durum wheat and bread wheat in Morocco. Major effort has been put on host plant resistance for control of this pest. Field and greenhouse ...
Sources of resistance in durum wheat and its wild relatives to Russian wheat aphid (Hemiptea: Aphididae)
Russian wheat aphid (RWA), Diuraphis noxia (Kurdjumov), is a serious pest of cereals in
many parts of the world, particularly in dry areas. As limited resistance sources to this pest
were previously identified in durum ...
First source of resistance in durum wheat to Hessian fly (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) in Morocco
Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Say), is the major pest of wheat in North Africa. In Morocco, durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. subsp. durum (Desf). Husn.) losses due to this pest have been estimated at 32%. Genetic ...
Potential for nitrogen fertilization and Hessian fly-resistance to improve Morocco's dryland wheat yields
Hessian fly (Mayetiola destructor, Say) is a perennial scourge of cereal production in the Mediterranean region, particularly in North Africa. In Morocco, it accounts for considerable yield losses of wheat (Triticum spp.), ...
