What works or does not work in spreading improved varieties to women (based on evidence of women benefitting through specific approaches) in context of gender-segregated cultures
The presentation presents a tool related to improving women's access to agricultural technologies in gender-segregated cultures.
Regular updating of the crossing block with new barley varieties for conducting the crossing program of winter barley for different breeding objectives
The new sources of abiotic and biotic stresses have also been identified after evaluation through collaboration with NARS for phenotyping at diverse environments. Crossing blocks (CB) of barley 480 germplasm for spring ...
Barley research in India: challenges and opportunities
Barley in India is grown in marginal, problematic and resource poor soils as a rainfed crop except some malt barley under contract farming. India's annual production of barley is around 1.6-1.8 m tons and area under ...
Genotypic and location effect on grain protein content of barley under sub-tropical climates
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is a very ancient grain and is considered as a sacred grain the Indian culture.
However, over the years the area and production of barley decreased in India mainly because of availability
of ...
Implementing breeding programs for high- & low-input, spring and winter barley
The breeding program was implemented in four countries viz. Lebanon (Terbol & AUB), Morocco (Rabat, Jemma Shaim, Allal Tazi), India (Amlaha) and Mexico (Toluca/ Obregon) to fulfil the objectives. More than 1800 new crosses ...
Association and multivariate analysis of yield and its components in hulless barley (Hordeum vulgare L)
Hulless or naked barley is an important cereal crop in the high altitude areas of Himalayas in India. Now-adays,
it is becoming popular as human food due to presence of higher beta glucan content, since healthy
effects of ...
Genome wide association study (GWAS) of resistance to barley spot blotch in South Asia
Spot blotch, caused by Cochliobolus sativus (anamorph: Bipolaris Sorokiniana) is one of the important
foliar diseases of barley in South Asia. However, limited information on genetic resistance of spot blotch
resistance ...
Addressing the global challenges for barley improvement through CGIAR Research Program on Dryland Cereals
The International Center for Agricultural Research in Dry Areas (ICARDA) has a global mandate for
barley improvement, specifically for dry areas across the globe. ICARDA has reorganized the spring and
winter barley research ...
Genome Wild Association Studies for New Traits
Two GWAS panels were assembled that represent a sample of Jordanian barley landraces accessions (150 landraces) for drought tolerance and yield and a collection of ICARDA elite material (288 lines) for disease resistance ...
Novel sources of resistance to stripe rust in ICARDA barley germplasm
Stripe rust of barley (Puccinia striiformis Westend. f. sp. Hordei) occurs worldwide and host resistance is
the most economically and environmentally appropriate option as the use of fungicides is not very common
in low ...
