Expanding the genetic basis of modern wheat cultivars may improve yield stability and increase grain yields under climatic changes, to feed the growing human population. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the potential for incorporation...

The distribution of ticks is essentially determined by the presence of climatic conditions and ecological contexts suitable for their survival and development. We build a model that explicitly takes into account each physiological state through a...

Crop landraces have unique local agroecological and societal functions and offer important genetic resources for plant breeding. Recognition of the value of landrace diversity and concern about its erosion on farms have led to sustained efforts to...

Understanding and representing the transformation of agricultural production systems has attracted increasing interest due to its importance for identifying drivers of changes and coping mechanisms in response to global challenges. These challenges...

ICARDA formalized its partnership with Morocco on the 18th of January 1985
signing a formal agreement with the Government of the Kingdom of Morocco.
Morocco welcomed ICARDA when it relocated from Syria due to conflict in
2012, and it has since...

The objectives of the current study were to estimate the genetic parameters and genetic trends for growth traits, and to assess inbreeding levels of Abera sheep under community-based breeding programs (CBBPs) in Ethiopia. General linear model...

Ascochyta blight (AB), caused by the fungal pathogen Ascochyta rabiei, is a devastating foliar disease of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). The genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS)-based approach was deployed for mapping QTLs associated with AB resistance in...
