Water footprint assessment of sheep and goat production in the agro-pastoral production system in the region of Sidi Bouzid in Central Tunisia
There is an increasing concern on the continuous and rapid decreaseof water availability across the whole territory particularly in central and southern Tunisia. This constraint is adversely affecting livestock production ...
Recent status of Moroccan faba bean landraces: collection, characterization and utilization
Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is an important food and feed legume crop in Morocco with a multitude of uses. Morocco is known to be an important center for diversity for faba bean. However, the erosion of faba bean genetic ...
Effects of seed dressing pesticides on the spread of Faba bean necrotic yellows virus on faba bean and Barley yellow dwarf virus-PAV on barley and oat
The effects of two seed-dressing pesticides in reducing the spread of aphid-transmitted Faba bean necrotic yellows virus (FBNYV, genus Nanovirus, family Nanoviridae) and Barley yellow dwarf virus-PAV (BYDV-PAV, genus ...
Effect of agriculture practices and stocking rates on performances of Barbarine ewes grazing on wheat stubble in Tunisian semi-arid conditions.
The aim of this work was to study the effect of agricultural practices (Conventional or conservation agriculture: Conv. A and CA respectively) and the stocking rate on live weight variation of Barbarine ewes in semi-arid ...

Mapping and monitoring of the agricultural production systems on a regular interval provide important
spatial matrix on the status, trend, and options for effective intervention at multiple scales. The recent
advances in ...
A genomic toolkit for improvement of faba bean
My group has led the collaborative development of a set of over 950
SNP markers for Vicia faba; of these approximately 650 have been mapped so far.
Our current consensus linkage map of faba bean consists of just 6 linkage ...
