The tolerance of abiotic stress is considered to be one of the key features of crop breeding under climate changes. For any crop improvement program, the selection of suitable gene pools among the germplasms is first needed. Drought and salinity...
Identification of breeding objective traits pertinent to specific production environments with the involvement of target beneficiaries is crucial to the success of a breed improvement program. A choice experiment was conducted in four locations...
Investigation was carried out to assess the effects of environmental factors and to estimate genetic parameters and trends for
reproductive traits in Bonga sheep, Ethiopia. Animals used in this study were managed by two communities involved in a...
The plant rhizosphere interfaces an array of microbiomes related to plant growth
and development. Cultivar-specific soil microbial communities with respect to their taxonomic
structure and specific function have not been investigated explicitly in...
Flowering time is a critical stage for crop development as it regulates the ability of plants to adapt to an environment. To understand the genetic control of flowering time, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted to identify the...
Lentil (Lens culinarisMedikus) is a protein-rich cool-season food legume with an excellent
source of protein, prebiotic carbohydrates, minerals, and vitamins. With climate change,
heat, and drought stresses have become more frequent and intense in...
Heat stress at later growth stage is one of the major limitations in achieving potential yield in barley. Incorporation of heat tolerance in the variety development process is an essential task that breeders would like to achieve by exploring new...
