Aquaculture needs to provide live food such as Artemia and one of the most important issues in A. franciscana rearing, is a food supply. The instar I nauplii were fed in seven treatments including Wheat bran, Rice bran, Soy-meal and algae (Dunaliella salina). For each treatment calculated growth rate, survival percentage, and body composition. At the reproductive period, 35 pairs were individua...

Wheat is an important source of energy and nutrition including antioxidants having health benefits to humans. In this investigation, 19 12 prominent wheat genotypes grown (during cropping season 2019-20) at three locations in two production environments representing North-Western Plains Zone (NWPZ) Central (CZ), respectively, were used for evaluating their antioxidant potential. There was a sig...

ABSTRACT Isolates of Puccinia triticina collected from common wheat in the Central Asia countries of Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan and the Caucasus countries of Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Armenia were tested for virulence to 20 isolines of Thatcher wheat with different leaf rust resistance genes and molecular genotype at 23 simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci. After clone corre...

Water deficit and heat stress are the main abiotic stresses affecting yield quality of winter wheat. The increasing frequency simultaneous occurrence these two might threaten global food security drives need to breed resilient high-quality cultivars. aim this study was evaluate grain yield, gluten protein characteristics in 50 wheat cultivars breeding lines during harvest years 2018 2019. compo...

Nitrogen (N) is a vital component of crop production. Wheat yield varies significantly under different soil available N. Knowing how wheat responds to or interacts with N produce grains essential in the selection use efficient cultivars. We assessed this study variations among genotypes for productivity-related traits three cropping systems (CS), high-nitrogen fungicide (HN-WF), without (HN-NF)...

In this study, 33 spring and winter wheat genotypes were analyzed for carotenoid content and composition. Investigated genotypes were divided into four genotype groups i.e., spelt, landraces, old cultivars and primitive wheat. The results showed a high level of variation among the genotypes in amount of carotenoids in the grain with high values (around 4 mg/Kg) especially in one of the genotype...

Wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV) is a mite-vectored with substantial economic impact on wheat production. One of the effective sources resistance to WSMV, Wsm1, carried translocation from Thinopyrum intermedium. The original whole arm form this (T4DL·4JsS) was highly against WSMV but yield penalty in absence virus. Shorter recombinants Th. intermedium are now available. This study characterized...
