Genetic variability for mineral nutrients in lentil
The present study was conducted to analyze the concentration of 8 important mineral nutrients namely calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), selenium (Se), and cadmium (Cd) ...
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 ...
Use of expressed sequence tag microsatellite markers for exploring genetic diversity in lentil and related wild species
Expressed sequence tag-simple sequence repeat (EST-SSR) markers were used to analyse genetic diversity among three Lens species. The SSR loci amplified successfully in wild species, with 94·82% transferability in Lens ...
Genetic Diversity in Lens Species Revealed by EST and Genomic Simple Sequence Repeat Analysis
Low productivity of pilosae type lentils grown in South Asia is attributed to narrow genetic
base of the released cultivars which results in susceptibility to biotic and abiotic stresses.
For enhancement of productivity ...
Development of new microsatellite markers and their application in the analysis of genetic diversity in lentils
This paper reports the development of new microsatellite markers for lentil (Lens culinaris subsp. culinaris) and their use for genetic diversity analysis of a lentil core collection developed at ICARDA (Aleppo-Syria). ...
Current Knowledge on Genetic Biofortification in Lentil
Micronutrient deficiency in the human body, popularly known as “hidden hunger”, causes many health problems.
It presently affects >2 billion people worldwide, especially in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. Biofortification ...
