Identification and Comparative Analysis of Differential Gene Expression in Soybean Leaf Tissue under Drought and Flooding Stress Revealed by RNA-Seq
Drought and flooding are two major causes of severe yield loss in soybean worldwide. A lack of knowledge of the molecular mechanisms involved in drought and flood stress has been a limiting factor for the effective management ...
Food system resilience: Defining the concept
In a world of growing complexity and uncertainty, the security of food supplies is threatened by many
factors. These include multiple processes of global change (e.g. climate change, rapid urbanization, population
ageing), ...
Identification of Gaps in Pigeonpea Germplasm from East and Southern Africa Conserved at the ICRISAT Genebank
The genebank at ICRISAT, Patancheru, India conserves 13,771 accessions of pigeonpea germplasm from 74 countries, including 1,168 accessions from 13 East and Southern African (ESA) countries: Based on availability of ...
Validation of markers linked to late leaf spot and rust resistance, and selection of superior genotypes among diverse recombinant inbred lines and backcross lines in peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.)
Recombinant inbred lines (RILs) from four populations involving cultivated varieties, and backcross lines from three populations involving cultivated varieties and synthetic tetraploids (developed from wild diploids) were ...
Believe it or not, hybrid technology is the only way to enhance pigeonpea yields
Pigeonpea yields have remainedunacceptably low over the past five decades and efforts to break this plateau through breeding pure line cultivars did not succeed in its mission. Key successes in breeding stable cytoplasmic ...
Development of Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) assay for rapid detection of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris - wilt pathogen of chickpea
Background
Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris (Foc), the causal agent of Fusarium wilt is a devastating pathogen of chickpea. In chickpea, various soil borne pathogens produce (s) similar symptoms, therefore cannot be ...

Association of nad7a Gene with Cytoplasmic Male Sterility in Pigeonpea
Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) has been exploited in the commercial pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] hybrid breeding system; however, the molecular mechanism behind this system is unknown. To understand the underlying ...
Genetics, genomics and breeding of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.)
Groundnut is an important food and oil crop in the semiarid tropics, contributing to
household food consumption and cash income. In Asia and Africa, yields are low
attributed to various production constraints. This review ...
Differential Induction of Flavonoids in Groundnut in Response to Helicoverpa armigera and Aphis craccivora Infestation
Flavonoids are important plant secondary metabolites, which protect plants from various stresses, including herbivory. Plants differentially respond to insects with different modes of action. High performance liquid ...
