Evaluate two sets of hybrids (30 hybrids developed from ESA and 25 developed from India across agroecologies in Kenya, Tanzania and Sudan
1] 46 Topcross hybrids developed from ESA OPVs and lines from WCA together with three OPV parents were evaluated as a PYT trial at Kiboko. A lattice square design with three replications was used. 2] Twenty one hybrids ...
Multi environment evaluation of chickpea disease nurseries (wilt, Aschochyta blight and Botrytis grey mold) to identify stable and new sources of resistance
Under the ICRISAT- ICAR collaboration, disease nurseries of wilt (ICWN), AB (IABN) and BGM (IBGMN) consisting of 30 entries (28 resistant cultivars and 2 susceptible checks) were evaluated at different locations (hot spots) ...
Groundnut lines that combine several desirable traits into single genotype to meet the needs of the farmer, consumer and industry.
Single-seed descent, pedigree, and backcross methods of breeding are used to improve the target traits. Selection in segregating populations are enabled by (a) markers for three traits, resistance to rust and late leaf ...
Evaluation of heat tolerant chickpea lines for grain yield and other adaptive features under optimal and stress conditions
Eighteen chickpea (Cicerarietinum L.) germplasms (with the standard and local checks) and 2 planting dates were laid on RCBD with three replication in order to be evaluated for grain yield and other adaptive traits. The ...
Advanced early maturing breeding lines and MABC lines evaluated for grain yield and other adaptive traits in Ethiopia
In the subsequent tables under the MABC category, it is evident that those marker assisted tool have supported the integration and expression of gene of interests for traits like yield and drought tolerance. In each of ...
Evaluation and demonstration of elite sorghums varieties and hybrids for specific production ecologies and uses
Demonstrations were conducted on 1ha and 0.5ha across 190 locations within Sudano-Sahelian agro-ecological zone, each technology were planted on a 50 x 25 plot, 5 fertility type/source and 9 sorghum varieties were involved ...
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 ...
Multi-environment evaluation of pigeonpea disease nursery of 28 lines to wilt and SMD resistance
Under the ICAR-ICRISAT collaboration, during 2015-16 crop seasons, Pigeonpea Wilt and SM Disease Nursery (PWSMDN) consisting of 30 entries (28 resistant cultivars and 2 susceptible checks) were evaluated for wilt and SMD ...
Evaluation of wide hybridization derived lines for yield and related traits
Wild relatives of pigeonpea possess desirable attributes to combat biotic stresses. The introgressed lines also serve as source for genetic enhancement for yield and related agronomical traits.
Evaluation early and extra-early chickpea lines for grain yield and other adaptive traits in Ethiopia
Fifteen early and extra early maturing chickpea lines including the standard checks (‘Ejere’ and ‘Minjar’) were evaluated for earliness at Debre Zeit during 2014 off season, 2014 main season, 2015 main season and 2016 ...
