Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis with two primer sets of luteoviruses was used to characterize an isolate of Chickpea chlorotic stunt virus (CpCSv, genus Polerovirus, family Luteoviridae) (SC402-08) collected from Lattakia...
‘FIGS’: A more precise approach to mining agricultural gene banks.
This report presents the possibilities of ‘FIGS’, a new technique for searching agricultural genebanks, that helps crop breeders and their managers achieve faster and better targeted...
Information on the variation available for different plant attributes has enabled germplasm collections to be effectively utilised in crop improvement. This study evaluated 380 durum wheat landraces, representing a worldwide durum wheat collection...
Efficient methods to explore plant agro-biodiversity for climate change adaptive traits are urgently required. The focused
identification of germplasm strategy (FIGS) is one such approach. FIGS works on the premise that germplasm is likely to
reflect...
Simple sequence repeats and mating type markers were used to estimate the genetic diversity of 133
Didymella rabiei isolates collected from nine provinces of Syria. Moreover, phenotyping was done on 56
isolates randomly selected from the different...
Leaf rust (Puccinia triticina Eriks. & Henn.) is a major disease affecting durum wheat production. The Lr14a-resistant gene present in the durum wheat cv. Creso and its derivative cv. Colosseo is one of the best characterized leaf-rust resistance...
جرت عمليات المسح الحقلي لمرض ذبول العدس في معظم مناطق انتشار و زراعة العدس في سورية خلال موسمي 2008 / 2009 و 2009 / 2010، بهدف تحديد أماكن انتشار المرض و العوامل المؤثرة في تطوره.
و قد بينت النتائج انتشار المرض في جميع المحافظات التي تزرع العدس خلال...
