Develop MAGIC and biparental populations following SSD (2) Phenotyping of populations for target traits
Seed increase is in progress of 3000 F6 generation MAGIC lines derived from the crosses involving the parents, ICGV 91114, ICGV 06040, 55-437, ICGV 00440, ICGV 00308, GPBD 4, ICGV 05155 and ICGV 88145. RIL population derived ...
Women’s empowerment through seed improvement and seed governance Evidence from participatory barley breeding in pre-war Syria
Approaches to food security primarily focus on technological solutions, seeking to produce more food, preferably with fewer resources. It has been argued that access to food involves issues of resource distribution and ...
Evaluation plant water budget of orphan grain legume species in lysimeters and of traits related to plant water budget in the LeasyScan facility
For the first three experiments in lysimeter the genetic material consisted of 22 genotypes, 13 of lablab, horsegram, moth bean, rice bean and cowpea, which were benchmarked to 9 genotypes across mungbean, soybean, peanut ...
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, ...

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 ...

Testing wild relative of chickpea under different experimental conditions for TE and plant water budget
Three types of assessment were made: (i) the transpiration response to increasing VPD (ii) the transpiration response to soil drying; (iii) the plant water budget of these wild germplasm. 16 wild and 5 cultivated entries ...
Main-effect QTLs (M-QTLs) for Aspergillus infection and Aflatoxin Contamination
Screening of the fungal infection was performed in the controlled conditions at Tifton in 2015. QTL analysis using phenotyping and genotyping data identified ten M-QTLs for the Aspergillus infection with PVE ranging from ...
Genetic relatedness studied at molecular level for huskless barley (Hordeum vulgare)
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is fourth major crop in the world that has been under cultivation since ancient times. It is classified into hulled and hulless barley according to the grain type. In India, hulless barley is ...
