This issue of Caravan chronicles ICARDA’s efforts in developing a research strategy and a need-based research program for the CAC region. In doing so, ICARDA played a major role in bringing together all partners, most importantly donors. The...
Germany possesses one of the world’s leading industrialized economies and has for many years been actively funding overseas development projects through the annual allocation of many millions of Deutschmarks. Like all partnerships, there have...
Management alternatives for improved durum wheat production under supplemental irrigation in Syria
In the Mediterranean zone, efforts to optimize combinations of supplemental irrigation (SI), improved varieties, nitrogen (N) and sowing dates aim to improve and stabilize cereal yields and maintain quality, especially for durum wheat. Thus, a 4...
Survey for chickpea and lentil virus diseases in Ethiopia
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) and lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) are among the major cool-season food legumes grown in Ethiopia. Fungal and viral diseases are important factors limiting production of these two crops in the Country. As there is...
Inheritance and Linkage Analysis of Frost Injury in Lentil
Radiation-frost injury is an important abiotic constraint to lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) production in West Asia, but no information has been published on the inheritance of radiation-frost injury in lentil. The objectives of the study were...
Inheritance and linkage relationships of days to flower and morphological loci in lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus subsp. culinaris)
Lentils from south Asia differ markedly in days to flower and several other traits from lentils in other major lentil producing areas of the world such as west Asia. Single-gene inheritance and a polygenic system were observed to control days to...
10 Years of the ICARDA Rainfed Research Platform in Morocco
ICARDA is celebrating 10 years of collaborations with the Kingdom of Morocco on a groundbreaking Rainfed Research Platform to promote sustainable and resilient livelihoods for rural communities while conserving precious natural resources. The...
A genetic linkage map of lentil (Lens sp.) based on RAPD and AFLP markers using recombinant inbred lines
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...
Water-use efficiency and transpiration efficiency of wheat under rain-fed conditions and supplemental irrigation in a Mediterranean-type environment
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...
