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, ...
Current knowledge in lentil genomics and its application for crop improvement
Most of the lentil growing countries face a certain set of abiotic and biotic stresses causing substantial reduction in crop growth, yield, and production. Until-to date, lentil breeders have used conventional plant breeding ...
Screening of lentil germplasm to identify the sources of resistance against Orobanche crenata
The root parasite, broomrape (Orobanche crenata) poses a serious threat to lentil production in Mediterranean and West Asian countries. Identinfication of resistant sources in the germplasm collections and the development ...
Morpho-biochemical characterization of a RIL population for seed parameters and identification of candidate genes regulating seed size trait in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.)
The seed size and shape in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) are important quality traits as these influences the milled grain yield, cooking time, and market class of the grains. Linkage analysis was done for seed size in a ...
Orobanche resistance in faba bean and lentils
In order to identify resistance sources, 216 lentil and 194 faba bean elite lines and 280 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) of a faba bean cross (BPL710 x ILB4347) were screened against Orobanche crenata in a
sick plot at ...
Breeding strategies to improve lentil for diverse agro-ecological environments
Lentil is an important cool season pulse crops and it is cultivated world-wide in diverse agro ecological conditions. Several varieties have been developed adopting conventional breeding methodologies. Significant ...
Genetic Variation for Tolerance to Herbicide Imazethapyr in Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.)
Identification of lentil genotypes tolerant to post-emergence herbicides and incorporation of herbicide tolerance in to high yielding varieties can prove a boon for developing effective integrated weed management strategy ...
Identification of machine harvestable lentils with herbicide tolerance
Sixty-six machine harvestable lentil lines were evaluated in two separate yield trials along with three checks at two locations, Marchouch in Morocco and Terbol in Lebanon, during 2019. Based on good standing ability, ...
Relevance of limited-transpiration trait for lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) in South Asia
Drought is one of the most important environmental factors that limit crop production. It has been hypothesized that a limited-transpiration trait under high vapor pressure deficit (VPD) is a mechanism for water conservation ...
Phenotypic variability and characteristics of lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) germplasm of Ethiopia by multivariate analysis
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik) is an important crop in Ethiopian highlands. Its productivity is very low
due to low yielding landraces and other factors. The objectives of this study were to classify groups of
genotypes ...
