Mechanized raised-bed irrigation: Production package
This project aimed at up-scaling the field-tested
Mechanized Raised-Bed Irrigation (MRBI)
production package in Egypt, focusing on
small-scale farming systems (see Box for explanation
of MRBI). The package included access ...
Cryptic Diversity Hidden within the Leafminer Genus Liriomyza (Diptera: Agromyzidae)
Leafminer insects of the genus Liriomyza are small flies whose larvae feed on the internal tissue of some of the most important crop plants for the human diet. Several of these pest species are highly uniform from the ...
Evolution of Crop Water Productivity in the Nile Delta over Three Decades (1985-2015)
Estimating crop water productivity (CWP) for spatially variable climatic conditions in Egypt is important for the redistribution of crop planting to optimize production per unit of water consumed. The current paper aims ...
Ecology and Evolution of Cuckoo Bumble Bees
Most social insect lineages contain socially parasitic cheater species that, rather than produce their own workers, infiltrate the nests of closely related social species and force the hosts to rear their offspring. These ...
Foliar spray of mineral nutrients enhanced the growth, seed yield, and quality in onion (Allium cepa L.) cv. Pusa Riddhi
The present experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of foliar spray of mineral nutrients on plant growth, seed yield, and quality attributes in onion cv. Pusa Riddhi at SPU, IARI, New Delhi during rabi 2013–14 ...
Simultaneous adoption of integrated soil fertility management technologies in the Chinyanja Triangle, Southern Africa
Empirical scientific evidence indicates that there is still room for increasing food production by improving land productivity. This study aimed at identifying the key determinants that govern farmers’ decisions to adopt ...
Chromatic exclusivity hypothesis and the physical basis of floral color
This paper presents the results of floral spectral studies on 1275 flowers from India, Brazil, Israel, Germany, and Norway. Floral spectral reflectance from 400 to 700 nm (nm) was used to quantitatively represent ...
Harvest index is a critical factor influencing the grain yield of diverse wheat species under rain-fed conditions in the Mediterranean zone of southeastern Turkey and northern Syria
Environmental and plant factors critical to the grain yields of bread (Triticum aestivum L.), durum (T. durum L.) and emmer (T. dicoccum L.) wheat cultivars were investigated at two Mediterranean rain-fed eld sites: Adana ...
