Salinity has become a major issue in various parts of the world negatively impacting agricultural activities and leading to diminished crop potential and lower yields. Such situation calls for urgent interventions such as adopting salt-tolerant crops...
Low-temperature stress (LTS) is among the major abiotic stresses affecting the geographical distribution and productivity of the most important crops. Understanding the genetic basis of photosynthetic variation under cold stress is necessary for...
Drought has become one of the most devastating natural risks of agricultural production and the environment in almost all climate regions. Thus, understanding the spatiotemporal characteristics of drought
and its associated impacts is crucial in...
- Understanding the genetic and molecular function of nitrate sensing and acquisition across crop species will accelerate breeding of cultivars with improved nitrogen use efficiency (NUE).
- Here, we performed a genome-wide scan using wheat and...
Study region: The Nile Delta, Egypt
Study focus: Shallow groundwater (GW) and soil salinity are major issues for irrigated agriculture,
particularly in arid and semi-arid regions, but more research is needed to link both issues with...
Durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) breeding programs face many challenges surrounding the development of stable varieties with high quality and yield. Therefore, researchers and breeders are focused on deciphering the genetic architecture of biotic...
Abstract
The study aimed to assess the phenotypic diversity of the local goat populations based on the measurement of qualitative and quantitative traits. The study was conducted in North Shoa and South Wello zones of Amhara region, Ethiopia in...
