Fusarium vascular wilt in lentil: Inheritance and identification of DNA markers for resistance
The inheritance of resistance to lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) vascular wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp, lentis was investigated in a cross between resistant (ILL5588) and susceptible (L692-16-1(s)) lines. F-2:4 ...
Survey for chickpea and lentil virus diseases in Ethiopia
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) and lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) are among the major cool-season food legumes grown in Ethiopia. Fungal and viral diseases are important factors limiting production of these two crops in the ...
The use of Rapd markers for lentil genetic mapping and the evaluation of distorted F2 segregation
To maximize the extent of polymorphism within a mapping population wide crosses are often made, frequently resulting in distorted segregation. Two parents used in the crosses in this study contained ca 50% from wild lentil ...
Quantitave evaluation of Ethiopian landraces of lentil (Lens culinaris)
One hundred and fifty-six landrace populations of lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) collected from 10 provinces in Ethiopia were evaluated for a set of six quantitative traits at three sites contrasting in altitude. Consistent ...
Genetic diversity and GWAS of agronomic traits using an ICARDA lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) Reference Plus collection
Genotyping of lentil plant genetic resources holds the promise to increase the identification and utilization of useful genetic diversity for crop improvement. The International Center for Agriculture Research in the Dry ...
Development of a panel of unigene derived polymorphic EST-SSR markers in lentil using public database information
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.), a diploid (2n = 14) with a genome size greater than 4000 Mbp, is an important cool season food legume grown worldwide. The availability of genomic resources is limited in this crop species. ...
Geographic distribution of variation in quantitative traits in a world lentil collection
In a world lentil collection the distribution of variation amongst accessions from 13 major lentil-producing countries was examined on the basis of nine quantitative morphological characters by discriminant analysis and ...
Aspartate aminotransferase allozyme variation in a germplasm collection of the domesticated lentil (Lens culinaris)
Variation at a polymorphic Aspartate aminotransferase locus was assayed in a sample of 298 accessions from the ICARDA germplasm collection of the domesticated lentil (Lens culinaris). Two alleles Aat-1 F and Aat-1 S were ...
Inheritance and linkage relationships of days to flower and morphological loci in lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus subsp. culinaris)
Lentils from south Asia differ markedly in days to flower and several other traits from lentils in other major lentil producing areas of the world such as west Asia. Single-gene inheritance and a polygenic system were ...
Reconstructing an ancient bottleneck of the movement of the lentil (Lens culinaris ssp. culinaris) into South Asia
Crop movement often leads to genetic bottlenecks. The lentil was domesticated in the Eastern Mediterranean region. Dissemination from highland Afghanistan into the Indo-Gangetic Plain, where it is of major importance today, ...
