A genetic linkage map of Lens sp. was constructed with 177 markers (89 RAPD, 79 AFLP, six RFLP and three morphological markers) using 86 recombinant inbred lines (F-6:8) Obtained from a partially interspecific cross. The map covered 1073 cM of...

Growth and water use were measured in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grown in northern Syria in a typical Mediterranean climate over five seasons 1991/92-1995/96. Water use was partitioned into transpiration (T) and soil evaporation (E-s) using...

Read in this issue: a) Poverty—it is also rural, and it is connected with agriculture. And it is perhaps the biggest single threat to the environment in dry areas. b) Central Asian agriculture is changing. ICARDA is now the focal point for...

Italy has a long historical connection with ICARDA and has been instrumental in much of the Center's genetic-resources activities. The Italian Government supported the establishment of a modem gene bank which has facilities for medium- and long...

Although ICARDA has had linkages with the Central Asian republics for a long time, through exchange of gennplasm and scientific visits, the Center's first scientific mission to the region visited Kazakstan in 1987, and laid. the foundation for...

To maximize the extent of polymorphism within a mapping population wide crosses are often made, frequently resulting in distorted segregation. Two parents used in the crosses in this study contained ca 50% from wild lentil genome (Lens culinaris...

Since its establishment, the International Center for Agricultural research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), based in Aleppo, Syria, has worked side by side with scientists and technicians in all parts of the Arab world to not only breed new, more...

Six hundred and five faba bean genotypes were evaluated for their reaction to a Syrian isolate (SV205-85) of bean yellow mosaic potyvirus (BYMV). The preliminary evaluation of the different genotypes response to infection was conducted under...

A survey of faba bean and chickpea for virus infection, conducted during February 1994 in the Sudan, showed that bean yellow mosaic potyvirus and broad bean mottle bromovirus occurred commonly in both crops. Chickpea chlorotic dwarf geminivirus...
