The reproductive function is affected by several environmental constraints including
health problems. In small ruminants, the interaction between parasite infestations and infections
and reproductive function has been little studied.
The objective...
Legumes are considered as strategic crops in Tunisia because of their economic and social relevance and directly contribute in the national alimentary equilibrium. However, legumes production levels remain quite low which is often attributed to...
In arid ecosystems, it is necessary to come up with strategies which significantly improve rangeland production to better the lives of smallholder farmers. The use of intermittent contours for water harvesting to boost shrub growth has resulted in...
This event was organized as part of the joint scientific agreement between the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), and the Institute of Arid Zones of Medenine (IRA), carried out within the Consortium Research...
Heat stress decreases photosynthesis, pollen viability, grain number and weight, and hence lowers yield and quality of wheat by variable amounts among different cultivars and genotypes. The present study was carried out to determine genetic...
Mapping the spatial and temporal dynamics of cropland is an important prerequisite for regular crop condition monitoring, management of land and water resources, or tracing and understanding the environmental impacts of agriculture. Analyzing...
Purpose – This paper aims to review the current status of wheat production, farming systems, production constraints and wheat demand-supply chain analysis; the role of international and national breeding programs and their approaches in wheat genetic...
