Next-generation sequencing for identification of candidate genes for Fusarium wilt and sterility mosaic disease in pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan)
Pigeonpea is a resilient crop, which is relatively more drought tolerant than many other
legume crops. To understand the molecular mechanisms of this unique feature of
pigeonpea, 51 genes were selected using the Hidden ...
Conduct Preliminary (49-100 entries) and Advanced (16-25 entries) trials of sorghum lines with multiple traits (Striga, midge, drought tolerance) and end-uses (food, feed and malting)
In Kenya the best performing sorghum lines IS 16545, Khalid, IS 25395, ASARECA 24-4-1 and ASARECA 15-2-1 had grain yields ranging from 2.593 to 3.33 t ha-1 and 76 to 81 days to flowering whereas in Tanzania, the best ...
Registration of ‘Serenut 5R’ Groundnut
’Serenut 5R’ (Reg. No. CV-129, PI 676092) is a new highyielding,
spanish-type groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L. subsp.
fastigiata var. vulgaris) with two seeds per pod. Serenut 5R was
released in 2010 by the National Semi-Arid ...
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 ...
Genetic and nutritional profiling of finger millet germplasm collection in ESA
Total 400 diverse fingermillet lines were planted for DNA extraction in poly house for DNA extraction at ICRAF-Nairobi. These lines have been characterized at the ICRISAT field research station at Kiboko, Kenya for nutritional ...
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, ...
Commercial hybrid cultivation production promoted in at least 100,000 ha
In 2016, a quantity of 705 tons of hybrid pigeonpea seeds were produced by all the stake holders Which was sufficient to cover 140000 has of area with hybrid pigeonpea seeds. An area of 680 has is under seed production by ...
Produce NS through progeny rows (2) Produce BS from NS bulk (3) Produce FS from BS
Breeder Seed is produced from NS. Rouging is done at vegetative and at the time of harvest. BS is graded and supplied. Nucleus Seed (NS) is produced from the Basic Seed constituted from the uniform progenies. Recycling ...
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 ...
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 ...
