Abstract Genotyping of lentil plant genetic resources holds the promise to increase identification and utilization useful diversity for crop improvement. The International Center Agriculture Research in Dry Areas (ICARDA) reference set plus collection 176 accessions was genotyped using genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) 22,555 SNPs were identified. population structure investigated Bayesian analysi...

Abstract Lentils ( Lens culinaris Medik.) are grown worldwide in diverse agroecological regions with significant global production and trade. Since early 2000s, lentils consumption have been growing beyond its traditional areas of utilization, notably USA, Canada, Australia, UK, many European Union countries. a rich source protein, minerals, bioactive compounds. Therefore, lentil‐based products...

among the environmental stresses, salinity is a major limiting factor in world legumes production is considered. in this study, sodium chloride and salicylic acid interaction on growth parameters were investigated in greenhouse with factorial arrangement in randomized complete block design with three replications. the plant consisted of three cultivars of lentil (kimiya, kermanshah and gachsara...

Bu çalışmada Batman ili Beşiri ilçesi Çemialo Sırtı mevkisinde 2013-2015 yılları arasında yapılan arkeolojik kazılar sonucunda MÖ 1. bin ile 2. binlere tarihlendirilen tabakalardan elde edilen arkeobotanik bulgular değerlendirilmiştir. yıla örneklerin büyük çoğunluğu iki ayrı küp mezardan edilmiştir. mezarlarda Fabaceae familyasına ait çok sayıda karbonlaşmış tohum bulunmuştur. yıl örneklerinde...

Powdery mildew is a widespread fungal plant disease that can cause significant losses in many crops. Some MLO genes (Mildew resistance locus O) have proved to confer a durable resistance to powdery mildew in several species. Resistance granted by the MLO gene family members has prompted an increasing interest in characterizing these genes and implementing their use in plant breeding. Lentil (Le...

Retrotransposons with long terminal repeats (LTR-RTs) are widespread mobile elements in eukaryotic genomes. We obtained a total of 81 partial LTR-RT sequences from lentil corresponding to internal retrotransposon components and LTRs. Sequences were obtained by PCR from genomic DNA. Approximately 37% of the LTR-RT internal sequences presented premature stop codons, pointing out that these elemen...

Lentil plays a major role in the food and nutritional security of low income Ethiopian families because of the high protein content of their seed; however, their productivity typically is low largely due to soil fertility limitations. Field and pot experiments were conducted during the 2011 cropping season to determine the effectiveness of Rhizobium strains on two cultivars of lentil in Souther...
