Analysis of genetic diversity and population structure of peanut cultivars and breeding lines from China, India and the US using simple sequence repeat markers
Cultivated peanut is grown worldwide as richsource
of oil and protein. A broad genetic base is needed for
cultivar improvement. The objectives of this study were to
develop highly informative simple sequence repeat ...
Whole genome re-sequencing reveals genome-wide variations among parental lines of 16 mapping populations in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
Background: Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the second most important grain legume cultivated by resource poor farmers in South
Asia and SubSaharan
Africa. In order to harness the untapped genetic potential available for ...

Assessing the prospects of Streptomyces sp. RP1A-12 in managing groundnut stem rot disease caused by Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc
Stem rot of groundnut caused by the soilborne
pathogen Sclerotium rolfsii can cause significant yield
losses. Biological control of stem rot using actinomycetes
is a viable alternative to existing fungicidal management.
Though ...
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 ...
First-generation HapMap in Cajanus spp. reveals untapped variations in parental lines of mapping populations
Whole genome re-sequencing (WGRS) was conducted on a panel of 20 Cajanus spp. accessions
(crossing parentals of recombinant inbred lines, introgression lines, multiparent advanced
generation intercross and nested association ...
Annotation of Trait Loci on Integrated Genetic Maps of Arachis Species
Peanut or groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is second, behind soybean, in the world’s legume oilseed market. In 2012, global
production was 41.2metric tons from an area of 24.7million hectares (FAOSTAT, 2014). Yield of peanut ...
Exciting journey of 10 years from genomes to fields and markets: Some success stories of genomics-assisted breeding in chickpea, pigeonpea and groundnut
Legume crops such as chickpea, pigeonpea and groundnut, mostly grown in marginal environments, are
the major source of nutrition and protein to the human population in Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa. These
crops, however, ...
Satellite imagery and household survey for tracking chickpea adoption in Andhra Pradesh, India
The objective of this study was to map the temporal changes in
chickpea cropped area over the last decade in Andhra Pradesh
using remote-sensing imagery. Moderate Resolution Imaging
Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data composited ...
Comprehensive tissue-specific proteome analysis of drought stress responses in Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br. (Pearl millet)
Pearl millet is the fifth most important cereal crop worldwide and cultivated especially by small holder farmers in arid and semi-arid regions because of its drought and salt tolerance. The molecular mechanisms of drought ...
