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 ...
Development of FIGS subsets for major biotic and abiotic stresses
The Focused Identification of Germplasm Strategy (FIGS) is used to develop best bet subsets for breeders sought traits. A total of 11 FIGS subsets were developed since December 2015 with a total of 1225 accessions (Table ...

Identification of marker-trait associations for Fusarium wilt and sterility mosaic disease resistance
To map the target genomic region(s) for FW and SMD resistance, three bi-parental mapping populations consisting of 188 lines each were developed and designated as Pigeonpea Recombinant Inbred Line (PRIL) populations (PRIL_A, ...
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 ...
