The International Bread Wheat Screening Nursery (IBWSN) is designed to rapidly assess a large number of advanced generation (F3-F7) lines of spring bread wheat under Mega-environment 1 (ME1) which represents diversity for a wide range of latitudes, climates, daylengths, fertility conditions, water management, and (most importantly) disease conditions. The...

The Elite Selection Wheat Yield Trial (ESWYT) is a replicated yield trial that contains spring bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) germplasm adapted to Mega-environment 1 (ME1) which represents the optimally irrigated, low rainfall areas. Major stresses include leaf, stem and yellow rusts, Karnal bunt, and lodging. Representative areas include the Gangetic...

The Semi-Arid Wheat Yield Trial (SAWYT) is a replicated yield trial that contains spring bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) germplasm adapted to low rainfall, drought prone environments typically receiving less than 500 mm of water available during the cropping cycle. The combination of water-use efficiency and water responsive broad adaptation plus yield...

The Semi-Arid Wheat Screening Nursery (SAWSN) is a single replicate trial that contains diverse spring bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) germplasm adapted to low rainfall, drought prone, semi-arid environments typically receiving less than 500 mm of water available during the cropping cycle. CIMMYT's breeding approach attempts to combine high yield...

Impacts of wheat blast disease on food security in South Asia- ex-ante impact study

International Durum Yield Nurseries are replicated yield trials designed to measure the yield potential and adaptation of superior CIMMYT-bred spring durum wheat germplasm that have been developed from tests conducted under irrigation and induced stressed cropping conditions in northwest Mexico. These materials have been subjected to numerous diseases...

This is the supplementary methods of "Use of High-Resolution Image Data Outperforms Vegetation Indices in Prediction of Maize Yield" published in Crop Science · May 2017, DOI: 10.2135/cropsci2017.01.0007. It includes the raw data in R format and the R-code for the analysis.

The major objectives of this rice crop cuts and survey were to: (i) identify major rice yield determinants in western terai districts of Nepal and (ii) to identify major determinants that describe the variability in rice yield across farms thereby linking with farm characteristics and socio-economic gradients. This study uses Remote Sensing (RS) data...

Phenotypic data collected in on-station field trials and genotypic data for breeding materials from the CIMMYT Durum Wheat breeding program are included in this study.

Genotyping and re-sequencing are among a suite of tools used to enable rapid and cost-effective tool to study genetic diversity. This workshop will explore its use in the genetic curation of accessi ons within and between collection(s). With such information across global collections, it becomes possible identify the truly unique accessions across all of...

The advent of cheap smartphones in rural areas across the globe presents an opportunity to change the mode with which researchers engage hard-to-reach populations. In particular, smartphones allow researchers to connect with respondents more frequently than standard household surveys, opening a new window into important short-term variability in key...

This data was collected as part of the Cereal Systems Initiative for South Asia (CSISA) (Phase-I) project, with an objective to assesses cereal production in selected areas of NW-Bangladesh, especially with respect to the biophysical and socio-economic characterization of the cereal producing farm households.

Under CSISA Phase II, Nutrient Omission Plot Technique (NOPT) trials were conducted in eight districts of Bihar, ten districts of Uttar Pradesh and ten districts of Odisha. Partner institutions include Bihar Agriculture University (BAU), Banaras Hindu University (BHU), Orissa University of Agriculture and Technology (OUAT), Central Rice Research Institute...

The IWYP Hub based in Ciudad Obregon, Mexico, offers an array of services, technology, and germplasm resources to IWYP Partner and Aligned projects. This study provides general information about the Hub, as well as descriptions of several germplasm populations being utilized within the IWYP project. For more information about the IWYP Hub, please...
