Wheat seed contamination with seed-borne diseases in cold climatic zone of Iran

Interactions Between Pea Seed - borne

approved: Richard 0. Hampton Pea seed-borne mosaic potyvirus pathotype 1 (PSbMV-P1) has the ability to infect most genotypes of Pisum sativum. The exception are those genotypes that are homozygous recessive for the sbm-1 gene. The life cycle of PSbMV pathotype 4 (PSbMV-P4) is unaffected by the sbm-1/sbm-1 genotype. Infectious clones of Pl-P4 recombinants were used to define the genomic segment ...

Study of Seed-borne Pathogen of Wheat and Rice with Photoacoustic Spectroscopy

Wheat and barley seed system in Syria: farmers, varietal perceptions, seed sources and seed management

A total of 206 wheat and 200 barley farmers were interviewed in northeastern Syria to understand farmer perceptions and practice relating to modern varieties, seed sources and seed quality. Wheat farmers had better awareness and grew modern varieties (87%), applied fertilizers (99.5%), herbicides (93%), seed treatment (90%) or insecticides (41%). In contrast barley growers had low awareness (36...
