Evolving food consumption patterns of rural and urban households in developing countries: A Bangladesh case
Purpose
Population and income are growing rapidly in South Asia, spurring the demand for food in general, and the demand for higher-valued food items in particular. This poses particular food security challenges for densely ...
A phenology based geo-informatics approach to map land use and land cover (2003 - 2013) by spatial segregation of large heterogenic river basins
Accurate information on land use and land cover (LULC) is critical for policy decisions especially for management of land and water resources’ activities in large river basins around the world. Phenology based LULC ...
Testing pearl millet and cowpea intercropping systems under extreme climatic conditions
With the potential threat of more frequent climate extremes putting semi-arid crop production in jeopardy, there is a need to establish more climate resilient cropping practices. Intercropping is often practiced by farmers ...
Accomplishments and challenges of pigeonpea breeding research in India
igeonpea [ Cajanus cajan (L. ) Millsp. ] is a prot einrich pulse crop which can grow well under soil moist ure limit ed environment s. The
crop can play a signif icant role in meet ing t ...
Analysis of an intraspecific RIL population uncovers genomic segments harbouring multiple QTL for seed relevant traits in lentil (Lens culinaris L.)
Improving seed related traits remains key objective in lentil breeding. In recent years, genomic resources have shown great promise to accelerate crop improvement. However, limited genomic resources in lentil greatly ...
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 ...
Comparative Agronomy Performance and Reaction to Fusarium Wilt of Lens culinaris X L. orientalis and L. culinaris X L. ervoides derivatives.
The development of transgressive phenotype in the segregating populations has been speculated to contribute to niche divergence of hybrid lineages, which occurs most frequently at larger genetic distances. Wild Lens species ...

Notification of crop varieties and registration of germplasm
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 ...
Monitoring the spatiotemporal dynamics of waterlogged area in southwestern Bangladesh using time series Landsat imagery
Waterlogging is becoming a major environmental problem and challenge for socio-economic development in the southwestern part of Bangladesh. In this study, the Satkhira district was selected as the study area to quantify ...
