Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) is a major fruit crop in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). The crop’s tolerance to high temperature, drought, and salinity makes it suitable to the harsh environment in the MENA region. Date palm is...
Global climate variability and change (and framing system) pose a serious threat to food
and to nutritional security, with increased concerns of agricultural risks and vulnerability to
pests and diseases. The nature and magnitude of the risks and...
The technological advancements in agriculture have resulted in higher yields but lower ecological efficiency and nutritional value. Little innovations in later sectors such as integrating ecological functions in the production systems have crippled...
We developed and modified a precise, rapid, and reproducible protocol isolating high-quality RNA from tissues of multiple varieties of cassava plants (Manihot esculenta Crantz). The resulting method is suitable for use in mini, midi, and maxi...
Le changement climatique est un des plus importants defis auquel le monde doit faire face aujourd’hui et dans le futur. Les secheresses prolongees et la desertification font partie des problemes rencontres par de nombreux pays, particulierement en...
