Deploying QTL-seq for rapid delineation of a potential candidate gene underlying major trait-associated QTL in chickpea
A rapid high-resolution genome-wide strategy for molecular mapping of major QTL(s)/gene(s) regulating important agronomic traits is vital for in-depth dissection of complex quantitative traits and genetic enhancement in ...
Allelic relationships of flowering time genes in chickpea
Flowering time and crop duration are the most important traits for adaptation of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) to different agro-climatic conditions. Early flowering and early maturity enhance adaptation of chickpea to ...
Crops that feed the world 11. Pearl Millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.): an important source of food security, nutrition and health in the arid and semi-arid tropics
Pearl millet is a major cereal in the arid and semiarid
regions of Asia and Africa. It is primarily cultivated for
grain production, but its stover is also valued as dry fodder.
Pearl millet is resilient to climate change ...
Plant growth promoting rhizobia: challenges and opportunities
Modern agriculture faces challenges, such as loss of soil fertility, fluctuating climatic factors and increasing pathogen and pest attacks. Sustainability and environmental safety of agricultural production relies on ...
