Arid Zone Research Institute, Bhakkar, Punjab, Pakistan. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract A new wheat variety (Fakhar-E-Bhakkar), high yielding, temperature stress tolerant and disease resistant was developed by hybridization between strain 93T347 and commercial cultivar Auqab-2000 at Arid Zone Research Institute, Bhakkar, Pakistan. F2 to F6 generations of this cross were advanced by modified bulk pedigree method from 2004 to 2010. Flag leaf attitude is semi erect and auricle color is white. This variety has tapering head shape with 13-14 cm length having 21-22spikelet per spike. It has high tillering capacity (145tillers per meter row).Fakhar-E-Bhakkar has good yield potential in poor sandy soil, early & terminal heat stress environments and characterized with morphological marker of anthocyanin pigmentation at peduncle and awns during grain filling stage. One thousand kernel weight ranges from 40.00 to 45.00 g. Seed is ovate, medium and amber in color having protein content 15.00%. It has good chapatti making quality. New wheat variety Fakhar-E-Bhakkar is resistant to prevailing races of leaf and yellow rusts along with desirable tolerance against local race of stem rust.

  • The Quest for Peace in Chechnya: the Relevance of Pakistan’S Tribal Areas Experience
    The Quest for Peace in Chechnya: The Relevance of Pakistan’s Tribal Areas Experience Svante E. Cornell Maria Sultan October 2002 Svante Cornell is Executive Director and Maria Sultan Pakistan Bureau Director of Cornell Caspian Consulting. Cornell is also Research Director of the Silk Road Studies Program at Uppsala University and Deputy Director of the Central Asia- Caucasus Institute, Johns Hopkins University. Sultan is Senior Fellow at the Institute of Strategic Studies, Islamabad, Pakistan. The Quest for Peace in Chechnya: The Relevance of Pakistan’s Tribal Areas Experience Though the war in Chechnya has clearly reached a deadlock, there seems to be little hope of a solution. Political analyst almost unanimously believe the war is set to continue for another several years, and few expect any development toward a peaceful resolution before 2004, at the earliest. This war is extremely costly for both sides, and damaging to the regional security of the entire Caucasus region. The blunt of the burden has been borne by Chechen civilians, who have for several years faced Russian aerial bombardment, zachistkas, death and mutilation, poverty and destruction. For Russia, Chechnya is a costly war that it cannot afford, depleting the resources of its military, while the Russian army is sinking ever deeper into chaos, the war thwarting all possible military reform. The military is taking casualties on a continuous basis, casualties that are far higher than it is publicly admitting. Unwilling or unable to find a way out of the war, the Putin administration has instead tried to regionalize the conflict, blaming Georgia for hosting Chechen rebels and threatening to launch a unilateral military intervention on Georgian territory.

Alsrn.tcr Analyzed chromites of the Zhob Valley layered ultramafic complex show areal varia- tions in replacement of Cr by Al and l'e3+, possibly related to a sequence of differentiation. The magma followed a normal course of cr)'stallization and olivine rvas the first mineral to crystallize. INrnolucrroN The Zhob Valley mafic-ultramafi.cigneous complex (including the rocks described earlier as part of the Hindubagh igneous complex) in West Pakistan is exposedintermittently over more than 2000 square miles, al- though the complete extent is not yet known. Localities and distribution of the larger ultramafic outcrops of this complex are shown in Figure 1. The western-most outcrops of the igneous complex are a few miles west of Khanozai in Quetta-Pishindistrict, and the best exposuresare to be seenin the Hindubagh-Nasai area of the Zhob district, where some of the larger hills such as Jungtorghar and Saplaitorghar are composedalmost entirely of theserocks. Sporadic outcrops of mafic rocks, probably related to this complex, occur along the road from Qilla Saifullah to Fort Sande- man, and from 12 miles north of Forl Sandemanto the Afghanistan bor- der there is scattereddevelopment of theserocks. PRevrous Wonn Following the discovery of chromite'in the Zhob Valley complex in 1902 the first systematic geologicalwork was carried out by Vredenburg (Holland, 1906)who describedthese rocks as "intrusive gabbros and ser- pentine, frequently chromite bearing" and mapped the area on a scaleof one inch to four miles.
