Herbicide tolerant, machine-harvestable chickpea, faba bean and lentil varieties
This product line aims at developing and making available to farmers machine harvestable and herbicide tolerant chickpea, lentil and faba bean varieties that are expected to reduce cost of cultivation through labor saving, ...
Allelic relationships of flowering time genes in chickpea
Flowering time and crop duration are the most important traits for adaptation of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) to different agro-climatic conditions. Early flowering and early maturity enhance adaptation of chickpea to ...
Evaluate Introgression Lines (ILs) of chickpea cultivars JAKI 9218 and JG 16 carrying “QTL-hotspot” for drought tolerance traits at multi-locations
•Flowering time of introgression lines (ILs) was in the range of 48-56 d under both rainfed and irrigated conditions. However, the maturity time was prolonged by one week under irrigated conditions (107 d) compared to ...
Extra-early chickpea and lentil varieties for Southeast Asia and East Africa
Development of extra-early varieties of chickpea and lentil offers opportunities for intensification and diversification of existing cropping systems in addition to introduction in new niches such as rice fallows in South ...
High yielding and drought tolerant genotypes developed through marker-assisted back crossing (MBAC) in chickpea
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the second largest grown food legume crop in the
world after common bean. This crop is largely grown under rainfed conditions in Asia
and sub-Saharan Africa where terminal drought is the ...
Whole genome re-sequencing reveals genome-wide variations among parental lines of 16 mapping populations in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
Background: Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the second most important grain legume cultivated by resource poor farmers in South
Asia and SubSaharan
Africa. In order to harness the untapped genetic potential available for ...
Association mapping of nutritional quality traits (protein, iron and zinc) in chickpea
The present study was designed to develop micronutrient-dense chickpea lines, by evaluating the genetic variability and identifying marker trait association for grain protein, Fe and Zn contents. The experiment was conducted ...
Heat tolerant superior lines
• 18 Advanced breeding lines of kabuli chickpea were evaluated for their performance under normal and summer (heat stress) conditions during Nov-Jan 2016 and Feb to Apr 2016, respectively. Experiments were conducted in RBD ...
Molecular Mapping of QTLs for Heat Tolerance in Chickpea
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), a cool-season legume, is increasingly affected by heat-stress at reproductive stage due to changes in global climatic conditions and cropping systems. Identifying quantitative trait loci ...
Vernalization response in chickpea is controlled by a major QTL
Wild Cicer species are known to be more responsive to vernalization (induce early flowering when exposed to low temperatures) than the cultivated chickpea. This study was aimed at molecular mapping of vernalization response ...
