Genetic Diversity of Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lentis Population Affecting Lentil in Syria
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) is an important food legume crop in Syria. Fusarium wilt (Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lentis – Fol) is a key yield-limiting factor in the country. The genetic diversity of Fol population was studied using 96 isolates...
Food legumes comprise all legumes grown for human food in China as either dry grains or vegetables, except for soybean and groundnut. China has a vast territory with complex ecological conditions. Rotation, intercropping, and mixed cropping...
Microsatellite marker-based genetic diversity analysis of elite lentil lines differing in grain iron and zinc concentration
Trial comprising fifty lentil genotypes was con- ducted at three locations in India during year 2013–2014 for estimation of grain Fe and Zn concentrations and to analyze G 9 E interactions by employing the additive main effect and multiplication...
Mapping Social Networks for Performance Evaluation of Irrigation Water Management in Dry Areas
