An integrated wheat package introducing heat-tolerant wheat varieties that can withstand temperatures greater than 38°C is transforming farmer fields in Sudan and showing policy-makers a new road to food security.
The third visit to ICARDA site was organized to do part of the doctoral study - needed to do the quality analysis for the wheat materials that was planted in the field experiments at second season, in addition to association mapping analysis.
A field experiment was conducted during winter (rabi) seasons of 2011–12 and 2012–13 at Agronomy Farm, Jobner, Rajasthan, to study the response of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) varieties to plant-growth regulators under normal and late-sown...
This study was carried out to characterize released Indian barley varieties for distinctiveness, uniformity and
stability during rabi, 2012-13 and 2013-14 at Karnal and Faizabad. A total 79 genotypes were observed with erect
growth habit, while 4...
Drought is a major limiting factor in faba bean (Vicia faba L.) production in the Mediterranean region, which is known for its irregular water distribution and moderate moisture levels (similar to 500 mm rainfall). In this study, faba bean genotypes...
Low productivity of pilosae type lentils grown in South Asia is attributed to narrow genetic
base of the released cultivars which results in susceptibility to biotic and abiotic stresses.
For enhancement of productivity and production, broadening of...
he objectives of this study were to determine the effects of drying and wetting (DW) cycles on soil organic carbon (SOC) mineralisation and on the priming effect (PE) induced by the addition of 13C-labelled wheat straw to long-term no-tillage (NT)...
