The trade-off between yield and environmental effects caused by nitrogen fertilizer application is an important issue in wheat production. A reduction in fertile florets is one of the main reasons for decreased yield under low nitrogen application...
Background
Whiteflies are a global threat to crop yields, including the African subsistence crop cassava (Manihot esculenta). Outbreaks of superabundant whitefly populations throughout Eastern and Central Africa in recent years have dramatically...
This paper focuses on exploring the potential of Climate resilient agriculture (CRA) for river basin-scale management. Our analysis is based on long-term historical and future climate and hydrological datasets within a GIS environment, focusing on...
Germplasm exchange from international genebanks and breeding programs is vital for successful crop improvement programs. More than 10,000 different accessions of wheat, barley, lentil, faba bean, chickpea, grasspea, and pasture and forage crops are...
Next-generation sequencing technologies have opened new avenues for using genomic data to study and develop molecular markers and improve genetic resources. Simple Sequence Repeats (SSRs) as genetic markers are increasingly used in molecular...
This study examined various shrub species integrated into field crops (wheat, vetch, barley), including leguminous varieties (Medicago arborea, Colutea istria, Coronilla glauca), Atriplex species (A. canescens, A. nummularia, A. undulata), and...
Conservation agriculture (CA), which could contribute to sustainable agriculture, maintains or improves soil nitrogen fertility by eliminating tillage (no-tillage). Quantitative assessment of soil constituents is enhanced by stable isotope techniques...
