A field study was carried out under rainfed conditions during the growing seasons 2010/11
and 2011/12 in Setif (Eastern part of Algeria) to study the genetic variability, heritability and …

Emmer wheat (Triticum. turgidum ssp. dicoccum) as an ancestor of bread and durum
wheats, can be a potential resource to restore genetic diversity in modern durum wheats. In …

Relationships among agronomic traits and grain yield were investigated in 56 genotypes of
durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.). The results indicated the presence of sufficient …

Abiotic stresses pose significant challenges to wheat farming, yet exploiting the genetic
variability within germplasm collections offers an opportunity to effectively address these …

Wheat breeding in the semi-arid region of Algeria aims to develop new cultivars combining
high productivity and good abiotic stress tolerance. Therefore, it is essential to understand …

Salinity is one of the most important abiotic stresses affecting agricultural productivity. The
present study investigated combining abilities, heterosis and heritability estimates of …

Studies on genetic gain, made by direct or indirect phenotypic selection, are needed
regularly since they offer valuable information for breeding programs. The purpose of this …

Combining ability and gene action of a set of durum wheat characters were studied using 6 x
6 half diallel crosses. Results revealed that general (GCA) and specific (SCA) combining …

The present investigation was undertaken to study the inheritance pattern and genetic
analysis of some indicators of grain yield in F1 and F2 populations of two bread wheat …

Plant height, straw mass and flag leaf area are recognized by physiologists as
morphological markers of drought stress tolerance. Developing varieties intended for arid …
