Many countries are keen to move away from traditional surface irrigation systems to more modern and efficient systems such as drip and sprinkler irrigation. Surface irrigation systems are less efficient in terms of water application because more...
Discordances between morphological systematics and molecular taxonomy in the stem line of equids: A review of the case of taxonomy of genus Equus
This paper revises the evolutionary history of the stem root of the genus Equus from Eocene period (54 million years before present, MYBP) to present. It also assesses molecular taxonomy and evolutionary relationships of this line since the...
Serial Translocation By Means Of Circular Intermediates Underlies Colour Sidedness In Cattle
Colour sidedness is a dominantly inherited phenotype of cattle characterized by the polarization of pigmented sectors on the flanks, snout and ear tips(1). It is also referred to as 'lineback' or 'witrik' (which means white back), as colour...
The current status of the agricultural soils in Khorezm is closely linked to their development influenced by past river flows and more recent human-managed irrigation and drainage practices. The initial relief of the Amudarya river delta was...

Molecular Characterization Of Ethiopian Indigenous Goat Populations
Six Ethiopian indigenous goat populations viz. Gumuz, Agew, Begia-Medir, Bati, Abergelle, and Central Abergelle were genotyped for 15 microsatellite markers recommended by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and International...
Genotype x Environment Interaction for Durum Wheat Grain Yield and Selection for Drought Tolerance in Irrigated and Droughted Environments in Iran
Durum wheat is grown in the Mediterranean region under stressful and variable environmental conditions. In a 4-year-long experiment, 14 genotypes [including 11 durum breeding lines, two durum (Zardak) and bread (Sardari) wheat landraces, and one...
Inheritance of Protruded Stigma in Black Gram [Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper]
Inheritance of protruded stigma in black gram [Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper] was investigated in the F(1), F(2), and F(3) generations of four crosses and their reciprocals involving a natural flower mutant with its parent genotype (IPU 99-167) and...
Identifying Superior Rainfed Barley Genotypes in Farmers' Fields Using Participatory Varietal Selection
This study was carried out to identify superior barley genotypes for the rainfed areas of western Iran using a participatory varietal selection (PVS) approach. Three field experiments were conducted in two randomly selected farmers' fields and...
Ties That Bind: USA-ICARDA. The research partnership between ICARDA and the United States of America
Since ICARDA’s inception in 1977, the United States has been the single biggest donor to the center’s research and capacity development programs. The benefits of this significant investment by US partners are dramatically increased crop yields...
