A SSR kit to study genetic diversity in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
A chickpea simple sequence repeat (SSR) marker reference kit has been developed based on the
genotyping of the global chickpea composite collection (3,000 accessions) with 35 SSR markers.
The kit consists of three pools ...
Resequencing of 429 chickpea accessions from 45 countries provides insights into genome diversity, domestication and agronomic traits
We report a map of 4.97 million single-nucleotide polymorphisms of the chickpea from whole-genome resequencing of 429 lines sampled from 45 countries. We identified 122 candidate regions with 204 genes under selection ...
Global Resources of Genetic Diversity in Peanut
Peanut or groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is an annual herb, with geocarpic fruits, and an indeterminate growth habit. It is classified
as a legume in the plant family Fabaceae. Carl Linneaus first described the cultivated ...
Draft genome of the peanut A-genome progenitor (Arachis duranensis) provides insights into geocarpy, oil biosynthesis, and allergens
Peanut or groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.), a legume of South American
origin, has high seed oil content (45–56%) and is a staple crop in
semiarid tropical and subtropical regions, partially because of drought
tolerance ...
Genotypic variation in soil water use and root distribution and their implications for drought tolerance in chickpea
Chickpeas are often grown under receding soil moisture and suffer ~50% yield losses due to drought stress.
The timing of soil water use is considered critical for the efficient use of water under drought and to reduce yield ...
Photoperiod Response of Annual Wild Species and Cultivated Chickpea on Phenology, Growth, and Yield Traits
Frequent utilization of wild Cicer species in
chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) improvement
programs, as well as the regeneration of these
wild species for efficient conservation in genebanks,
is hindered due to photoperiod ...
Eco TILLING-Based Association Mapping Efficiently Delineates Functionally Relevant Natural Allelic Variants of Candidate Genes Governing Agronomic Traits in Chickpea

Genome-wide development and deployment of informative intron-spanning and intron-length polymorphism markers for genomics-assisted breeding applications in chickpea
The discovery and large-scale genotyping of informative gene-based markers is essential for rapid delineation
of genes/QTLs governing stress tolerance and yield component traits in order to drive genetic
enhancement in ...
Landrace Germplasm for Improving Yield and Abiotic Stress Adaptation
Plant landraces represent heterogeneous, local adaptations of domesticated
species, and thereby provide genetic resources that meet current and new
challenges for farming in stressful environments. These local ecotypes ...
Resistance to pre-harvest aflatoxin contamination in ICRISAT’s groundnut mini core collection
Aflatoxin contamination in groundnut by Aspergillus flavus has assumed global significance and is considered a potential threat to human and animal health. The present study focused on the screening and identification of ...
