Evaluation of host-plant resistance in chickpea by microbial treatment.
Three chickpea endophytes AUR-2, AUR-4 and ARR-10 were found effective against B. cinerea in vitro conditions in the previous screening. Under controlled conditions (1500 Lux light intensity, 12 h/day; 100% RH, 15±2 °C ...
Purification of secondary metabolites from 2 actinomycetes responsible for antagonistic activity against important fungal pathogens of chickpea and sorghum
In our previous study, a total of 137 actinomycetes, isolated from 25 different herbal vermi-composts, were characterized for their antagonistic potential against Macrophomina phaseolina (causes charcoal rot in sorghum and ...
Potential of Wild relatives in Sorghum Improvement through Molecular Approaches
Wild relatives of crops play a key role in the development of high performing cultivars. Of the 22 species
comprising the highly variable genus, Sorghum, only one, S. bicolor, is commercially cultivated for food,
feed, and ...
Screening cowpea germplasm (cultivated and wild relatives) for aphid resistance
A total set of 376 entries including 374 mini-core accessions, 1 resistant check (TVu801) and 1 susceptible check (TVx 3236) were evaluated in screening cages at Kano and screen house at Cotonou for resistance to cowpea ...
Technical Report on classical and molecular approaches in wheat breeding. 2017 May, Morocco
The objective of this training course it to increase working collaboration with NARS for more efficiency in wheat varietal development, release and promotion.
Identification of suitable carrier material for plant growth-promoting (PGP) actinomycetes for long term storage
ICRISAT has identified 19 PGP actinomycetes, which were also demonstrated for their broad spectrum of PGP traits including biofortification, antagonistic and entomopathogenic traits on cereals such as rice, sorghum and ...
Evaluate AICRP-chickpea lines to wilt and dry root rot in chickpea
Total 50 National nursery, 20 AVT lines were screened for their resistance to wilt in wilt sick plot at ICRISAT and 80 lines for dry root rot using paper towel technique. Per cent wilt incidence was recorded at seedling, ...
