Fusarium head blight (FHB) is one of the most destructive diseases in wheat. Identification of resistance gene analogs (RGAs) may provide candidate genes for cloning of FHB resistance genes and molecular markers for marker-assisted improvement of...
Agricultural research in marginal dry areas can contribute to reducing poverty through the development of technological, institutional and policy options for poor farmers. Such research should address diversified opportunities and development...
Precision agriculture relies on using advanced tools to map and subsequently manage the variability across the field. There is an emerging interest in mapping apparent soil electrical conductivity (ECa) as a surrogate spatial map for soil texture...
The inheritance of resistance to lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) vascular wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp, lentis was investigated in a cross between resistant (ILL5588) and susceptible (L692-16-1(s)) lines. F-2:4 progenies and F-6:8, F-6:9...
The Central Anatolian Plateau of Turkey is a typical cool highland rainfed wheat area with an annual rainfall of 300–500 mm. Due to suboptimal seasonal rainfall amounts and distribution, wheat yields in the region are low and fluctuate substantially...
We evaluated the validity of predawn leaf water potential (ψPL) as an irrigation-timing indicator, using five field-grown wheat cultivars in three moisture regimes in northern Syria. The relationships between ψPL and amount of roots, soil water...
