Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) contributes 18% of the global production grain legume and serves as an important source dietary protein. An decrease in cropping area has been recorded during last two decades. Several biotic abiotic constraints underlie this decrease. Despite efforts deployed breeding selection several chickpea varieties with high yield potential that are tolerant to diseases, situation remained same for decade. Fusarium wilt caused by oxysporum f. sp. ciceris (Foc) is major...

Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) applications have emerged as an ideal substitute for synthetic chemicals by their ability to improve plant nutrition and resistance against pathogens. In this study, we isolated fourteen root endophytes from healthy wheat roots cultivated in Tunisia. The isolates were identified based 16S rRNA gene sequences. They belonged Bacillota Pseudomonadota taxa. Fourteen strains tested defense-eliciting potentials on durum under greenhouse conditions, vitro...

Beneficial microorganisms, including members of the Trichoderma genus, are known for their ability to promote plant growth and disease resistance, as well being alternatives synthetic inputs in agriculture. In this study, 111 strains were isolated from rhizospheric soil Florence Aurore, an ancient wheat variety that was cultivated organic farming system Tunisia. A preliminary ITS analysis allowed us cluster these isolates into three main groups, T. harzianum (74 isolates), lixii (16...

Abstract Inheritance, heterosis and combining ability of deeper root length (DRL) grain yield (GY) were investigated in durum wheat populations obtained from half‐diallel crossings among five parental lines differing their DRL GY. The study was conducted with the final objective identifying parent to be used a breeding programme develop drought‐tolerant varieties. General specific effects significant for both traits; however, additive gene predominant over non‐additive effects. Partial...

In the present study, characterization of strigolactones (SLs) produced by some Tunisian faba bean genotypes partially resistant to Orobanche foetida Poir. and O. crenata Forsk. was conducted LC–MS/MS results were compared with that a susceptible genotype. Among eight grown hydroponically, only genotype G5 one G9 (Badï) exuded into growth media similar mixture three SLs, orobanchol, orobanchyl acetate, novel SL at amounts detectable LC–MS/MS. This implies that, for except G5, impaired...

Orobanche spp. are root parasitic plants that cause yield losses in faba bean ( Vicia L.). In Tunisia, O . crenata and foetida among the major problems limiting production productivity. Breeding for resistance development of resistant varieties remain most efficient control strategy to combat these parasites. our study, field trials were conducted over two consecutive cropping seasons. A set 42 genotypes used this study; 39 advanced lines three checks; Najeh Baraca (resistant) Badi...

: An overview of the literature reveals that electrodeposition baths significantly influence deposited coatings’ morphology and properties. The present study investigates a sulphate-based bath in terms additive, pH, temperature for Zn–Co alloys onto mild steel, achieving nanocrystalline structure. obtained results cyclic voltametric SEM analyses revealed sodium allowed enhancement cobalt electrocrystallisation (22.6 wt%) to homogenize further layers’ However, adjustment pH obtention deposits...

Broomrapes (Orobanche & Phelipanche spp.) are parasitic weeds that significantly impact the productivity of major crops in Mediterranean region, like tomato (Solanum and faba bean (Vicia faba) species. This review article discusses extensively management strategies to control broomrapes, ranging from preventive measures curative approaches. Additionally, it includes meaningful information intricate molecular mechanisms underlying broomrape-host interaction, focusing on host...
