The purpose of this course was to provide training on modern crop breeding tools and techniques to accelerate genetic gain in grain legumes and dryland cereals.
ICARDA discontinued project support to the Islamic Republic of Iran and closed its office in Tehran, effective November 3, 2018. This decision reflects lengthy discussions among ICARDA’s management, Board of Trustees, its legal advisors and...
Plants are important components of any rangeland. However, the importance of desert rangeland plant diversity has often been underestimated. It has been argued that desert rangelands of Tunisia in good ecological condition provide more services...
Genetic and transcriptional variations in NRAMP‑2 and OPAQUE1 genes are associated with salt stress response in wheat.
The dissection of the genetic and molecular components of salt stress response offers strong opportunities toward understanding and improving salt tolerance in crops. In this study, GWAS was employed to identify a total of 106 SNP loci (R2 = 0...
