Correlation and path coefficient analyses of Rhodes grass (Chloris gayana) genotypes at Mechara Agricultural Research Center on Station
Authors: Lensa Urgesa*, Tamirat Dinkale, Jibrail Hassen
Sympathetic the nature and degree of association between dry matter yield and dry matter yield related traits is the essential to study for any underutilized forage improvements of sustainable genetic enhancement. Though, there is a lack of sufficient evidence on dry matter yield and related trait correlation and path coefficient analysis of Rhodes grass .. Read More»

Evaluation of genetic variability in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes at Holeta, Central Ethiopia
Authors: Fikir Desalew
The experiment was conducted in in alpha-lattice design at Holeta Agricultural Research Center in the 2021 main cropping season with two replications at experimental area of research farm. Analysis of variance revealed that there were statistically significant differences among the genotypes for most of their traits. The varieties showed wider variability.. Read More»

Genetic diversity and structure in Tunisian wild cherries and cultivated sweet cherries revealed by SSR markers
Authors: Azizi-Gannouni Thouraya, Ammari Youssef, Mnasri Rahmani Sameh, Ben Naceur M�barek, Albouchi Ali
Wild cherries are concentrated at high altitudes in northern Tunisia and cultivated sweet cherries are well adapted to low altitudes. This study aims to compare local wild and cultivated sweet cherries (Prunus avium L.) in the northern of Tunisia. To elucidate genetic variation of 21 cultivated sweet cherries (one landrace and 20 foreigner cultivars) .. Read More»

Genetic variability of sugarcane genotypes for red rot disease
Authors: M.S. Iqbal, B. Tabassum, M.F. Awan, M. Tariq, Q. Ali and I.A. Nasir
Sugarcane is a vital crop grown for sugar and sugary products. The importance of sugarcane has been increased greatly as many countries have started the biofuel production using sugarcane as a source. This crop suffers many diseases caused by bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Red rot is one of the major diseases which limit the yield every year. We have scree.. Read More»

Fusarium wilt’s pathogenic studies and disease management: A review
Authors: Ch. Muhammad Rafiq, Muhammad Tariq Mahmood, Mushtaq Ahmad, Imtiaz Ali, Sadia Kaukab, Muhammad Shafiq, Muhammad Saleem, Umer Iqbal
Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris is one of the most important fungal diseases of chickpea limiting its productivity in almost all chickpea growing countries across the world. F. oxysporum is soil borne and root inhabiting in nature which may survives in soil for longer period (up to six years). Pathogen undergoes.. Read More»

Genetic studies for yield and related traits in micro and macrosperma exotic lentil genotypes
Authors: Ch. Muhammad Rafiq, Sadia Kaukab, Aqsa Tahir, Masood Qadir, Busharat Hussain, Shakeel Ahmad Anwar, Muhammad Tariq Mahmood, Ali Aziz, Amir Hameed and Khalid Mehmood Mughal
With respect to seed size lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) species usually are distributed into two main groups namely Microsperma (<2.5 g/100-seeds) with small rounded seeds and Macrosperma (>2.5 g/100-seeds) with larger and more flattened seeds. The seeds/pod and pods/plant will decrease as the seed size increases that adversely affect the.. Read More»
