Phenotypic assessment of bread wheat genotypes under salt stress using multivariate analysis
Salinity stress affects bread wheat as one of the major cereal crops. Phenotyping elite bread wheat germplasm has high importance for its effective utilization in breeding programs. The objectives of the present investigation were to screen 169...
Evaluation Of Elite Bread Wheat Genotypes And Egyptian cultivars for salinity tolerance under saline conditions in Egypt
Global climate change is accelerating the process of soil salinization. Salinity restricts wheat production worldwide, including in Egypt. Thus, it is recommended to screen for salt-tolerant genotypes according to salinity tolerance related...
Genome-wide association study of agronomy and morphology and morphology traits in elite spring wheat Germplasm evaluated under salt stress conditions in Egypt
Soil salinity is a long-term issue that needs addressing by developing tolerant cultivars. Today, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) is a preferred tool for quantitative trail loci detection for different traits. Ten salinity-related...
Crop Wild Relatives Crosses: Multi-Location Assessment in Durum Wheat, Barley, and Lentil
Crop wild relatives (CWR) are a good source of useful alleles for climate change adaptation. Here, 19 durum wheat, 24 barley, and 24 lentil elites incorporating CWR in their pedigrees were yield tested against commercial checks across 19...
Tapping into the Environmental Co-benefits of Improved Tropical Forages for an Agroecological Transformation of Livestock Production Systems
Livestock are critical for incomes, livelihoods, nutrition and ecosystems management throughout the global South. Livestock production and the consumption of livestock-based foods such as meat, cheese, and milk is, however, under global scrutiny...
A chickpea genetic variation map based on the sequencing of 3,366 genomes
Zero hunger and good health could be realized by 2030 through effective conservation, characterization and utilization of germplasm resources1. So far, few chickpea (Cicer arietinum) germplasm accessions have been characterized at the genome...
