RNA-seq based transcriptome profiling, identification and validation of heat stress responsive genes in chickpea
Six contrasting heat responsive (tolerant - ICCV 92944, ICC 1356, ICC 15614 and sensitive - ICC 5912, ICC 4567, ICC 10685) genotypes were selected for the study. Heat stress was imposed using growth chamber facility, ...
Study of expression pattern of defence genes in chickpea and pathogenicity causing genes in FOC through qPCR in resistant and susceptible cultivars grown under elevated CO2
Total RNA was extracted from root tissues of wilt infected and control chickpea seedlings of susceptible cv. JG 62 and resistant cv. WR 315 grown under ambient and elevated CO2 condition. cDNA was synthesized from total ...
Addressing the global challenges for barley improvement through CGIAR Research Program on Dryland Cereals
The International Center for Agricultural Research in Dry Areas (ICARDA) has a global mandate for
barley improvement, specifically for dry areas across the globe. ICARDA has reorganized the spring and
winter barley research ...
Temperature sensitivity of food legumes: a physiological insight
Of the various environmental stresses that a
plant can experience, temperature has the widest and most
far-reaching effects on legumes. Temperature extremes,
both high (heat stress) and low (cold stress), are injurious ...
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 ...
Obcordate leaf shape hybrid parental line development
Quality hybrid production is the key requisite in the commercial hybrid production. The genetically uniform parental lines and commercial hybrids are necessary in production and marketing of quality hybrid crops. Grow out ...
Identification of drought and heat tolerant spring barley germplasm and their use in barley breeding program
Experiments were conducted for identification of drought and heat tolerant spring barley germplasm at Jemma Shaim location in Morocco with more than 2400 advanced genotypes and cultivars for their use in barley breeding ...
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 ...
Construction of Saturated Genetic Map
The first version of genetic map was constructed using the T-population (Tifrunner × GT-C20) with 239 mapped loci which was then improved to 378 marker loci. In the present study, genotyping data was generated for additional ...
