We examined the variation and relationships between pathogenicity and a microsatellite-based haplotype in 79 Tunisian Rhynchosporium secalis isolates that were collected from the most commonly cultivated barley populations in Tunisia, Rihane cv. and...
The volume of wastewater generated by domestic, industrial and commercial sources has increased with population, urbanization, improved living conditions, and economic development. The productive use of wastewater has also increased, as millions of...
Accurate prediction and characterization of the spatial distribution and temporal
variation of soil water is indispensable to optimize the use and management of land
within dry areas, which suffer from limited arable land and water resources. The...
This study was carried out to assess the genetic diversity and heritability of various agronomic traits using twenty fenugreek landraces from Iran. The trial was conducted at Maragheh experiment station in North-west of Iran under rainfed (RF) and...
The West Asia-North Africa region, which is characterized by a typical Mediterranean climate, is the center of origin of cereals, notably wheat (Triticum spp.) and barley (Hordeum spp). However, cereal production, which is primarily rainfed, is...
