Repeated Cross-Sectional Survey of Ectoparasites in Sheep from Central Tunisia: Does Low Prevalence Indicate Good Hygiene or Resistance to Ectoparasites?
Durum wheat heat tolerance loci defined via a north–south gradient
The global production of durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) is hindered by a constant rise in the frequency of severe heat stress events. To identify heat-tolerant germplasm, three different germplasm panels (“discovery,” “investigation,” and...
Genetic structure and ecological niche space of lentil's closest wild relative, Lens orientalis (Boiss.) Schmalh.
Crops arose from wild ancestors and to understand their domestication it is essential to compare the cultivated species with their crop wild relatives. These represent an important source of further crop improvement, in particular in relation to...
Identification of hydrologically homogenous watersheds and climate-vegetation dynamics in the Blue Nile Basin of Ethiopia
Identification of hydrologically homogenous watersheds in the Upper Blue Nile Basin of Ethiopia is challenging due to the large number of watersheds and the lack of consistent and reliable data. Traditional methods, such as expert-based...
Disease spectrum and its molecular characterisation in the lentil production system of lower-Indo Gangetic plains
Lentil is a food legume grown in the Indo-Gangetic plains including lower Gangetic Bengal (LGB). Lentil productivity in this zone is severely impeded because of the prevalence of several biotic cues. Plausible reports regarding the status of...
