The main aim of this research was to determine the potential effects different tillage systems (TT: traditional and RT: reduced tillage) on runoff erosion at two locations (Kahramanmaras Tarsus, Southern Turkey) under (i) fallow, (ii) wheat (Triticumaestivum L.), (iii) sainfoin (Onobrychissativa L.) crops. Rainfall simulations with intensity 120 mm h?1 30-min duration, representing a typical ex...

This study was conducted in a rice-based cropping scheme to investigate the impact of green manuring on soil health, considering physicochemical properties and sustainable crop production. A field experiment started 2 November 2015 completed 15 April 2018 under rice–berseem (Trifolium alexandrinum) system calcareous soil. Two patterns, rice–wheat–sesbania (rostrata), were compared with commonly...

Starch-branching enzymes (SBEs) are one of the four major enzyme classes involved in starch biosynthesis in plants and play an important role in determining the structure and physical properties of starch granules. Multiple SBEs are involved in starch biosynthesis in plants. Finger millet is calcium rich important serial crop belongs to grass family and the transcriptome data of developing spik...

Eight bread wheat genotypesof diverse origin were crossed in a half-diallel model in 2011/2012 season. The eight parents (Sahel-1 P1, Giza-168 P2, Misr-1 P3, Gemmieza-9 P4, Gemmieza-11 P5, Line-1 P6, Line-2 P7, Line-3 P8) and their 28 F1 hybrids were evaluated under normal and water stress conditions during 2012/2013 season in a two field experiments wereas designed a randomized complete block ...

Triticain-α is a papain-like cysteine protease from wheat (Triticumaestivum L.) that possesses activity towards toxic gluten-derived peptides, and was thus proposed as a novel therapeutic tool for celiac disease. We report an original approach employing rational design of domain architecture of Triticain-α and selection of the appropriate expression system for development of cheap and efficient...
