Promoting sustainable agriculture and improving nutrition are the main United Nation’s sustainable
development goals by 2030. New technologies are required to achieve zero hunger, and genome
editing technology is the most promising one. In the last...
irregular rainfall mainly during the winter season. The average rainfall in the
region is around 500 mm, but most of the cropped lands may receive rainfall
in the range of 300–900 mm, varying from year to year, with rainfall distribution
also varying...
Recent morphological and molecular studies confirmed Physoderma viciae, and not Olpidium viciae, to be the causative agent of the devastating Faba Bean Gall (FBG) disease on faba bean (Vicia faba) in Ethiopia and also highlighted its ability to cross...
This data paper describes the content of 16 datasets collected under the International Winter Wheat Improvement Program (IWWIP), an alliance between Turkey-CIMMYT-ICARDA (TCI), during the 2015–2016, 2016–2017, 2017–2018 and 2018–2019 seasons. Data...
Fusarium culmorum is one of the most important causal agents of root rot of wheat. In this study, 10 F. culmorum isolates were collected from farms located in five agro-ecological regions of Morocco. These were used to challenge 20 durum wheat...
The study simulated different potential breeding programs to design the optimal breeding structure and operational management structure for Borana goat. It evaluated different scenarios using ZPLAN+ software to maximize the genetic gain, discounted...
In plants, the study of belowground traits is gaining momentum due to their importance on yield formation and the uptake of water and nutrients. In several cereal crops, seminal root number and seminal root angle are proxy traits of the root system...
