Agro-morphological and biochemical responses of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd. var: ICBA-Q5) to organic amendments under various salinity conditions
The current study shows the results of an assessment of the performance of the seed sector in Egypt. It elaborates bottlenecks and ambitions towards the development of a well-functioning seed sector that is innovative, competitive, resilient and...
Aphanothece sp. as promising biostimulant to alleviate heavy metals stress in Solanum lycopersicum L. by enhancing physiological, biochemical, and metabolic responses
Heavy metals (H.M) are a major environmental concern around the world. They have harmful impact on plant productivity and pose a serious risk to humans and animals health. In the present study, we investigated the effect of Aphanothece crude...
Due to the risk of occurrence of several food-related diseases, quality control of the human-consumed products is particularly needed. For this purpose, elemental analysis is a useful analytical tool that provides information on the nutritional...
Marker-assisted introgression of fecundity mutation into Barbarine sheep breed under low input production system
Fecundity gene introgression has become an economical method to improve sheep prolificacy in developing countries. The FecXBar and FecGH mutations are variants of the BMP15 and GDF9 sheep genes, respectively, identified in Tunisian Barbarine...
Microbial functional genes within soil aggregates drive organic carbon mineralization under contrasting tillage practices
Soil organic carbon (SOC) transformation is susceptible to tillage practices. Conservation tillage is known to optimize soil structure, improve microbial community diversity and increase SOC storage. However, how soil aggregate distribution and...
Unclasping potentials of genomics and gene editing in chickpea to fight climate change and global hunger threat
Genomics and genome editing promise enormous opportunities for crop improvement and elementary research. Precise modification in the specific targeted location of a genome has profited over the unplanned insertional events which are generally...
Understanding pastoralists’ preferences for goat traits: Application of all-levels and end-point choice experiments
Pastoralists are generally known for carefully selecting and maintaining their livestock. In this study, we examine the preferences of pastoralists for goat traits. We employ discrete choice experiments of all levels and endpoints to investigate...
