Multi environment evaluation of chickpea disease nurseries (wilt, Aschochyta blight and Botrytis grey mold) to identify stable and new sources of resistance
Under the ICRISAT- ICAR collaboration, disease nurseries of wilt (ICWN), AB (IABN) and BGM (IBGMN) consisting of 30 entries (28 resistant cultivars and 2 susceptible checks) were evaluated at different locations (hot spots) ...
Re-sequencing of Foc isolates representing races to understand the pathogenicity mechanism
Total 56 isolates of Foc representing different races and locations in India where chickpea is grown has been used for the re-sequencing study. Raw data was subjected to filtration and correction steps using Trimmomatic ...
Multi-environment field testing to identify broad, stable resistance to sterility mosaic disease of pigeonpea
Sterility mosaic disease (SMD) caused by Pigeonpea sterility mosaic virus and vectored by the eriophyid mite is a serious disease of pigeonpea in almost all pigeonpea-growing areas. Managing the disease with chemicals such ...
Screening of pigeonpea breeding, germplasm and hybrids in disease sick plot to wilt and SMD and identify combine sources of resistance
Total 796 promising breeding lines, germplasm and hybrid were screened to wilt and SMD in disease nursery under artificial epiphytotic conditions at ICRISAT, Patancheru. The lines were evaluated in two replications under ...
Genome wide transcriptome profiling of Fusarium oxysporum f sp. ciceris conidial germination reveals new insights into infection-related genes
Vascular wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris (Foc) is a serious disease of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) accounting for approximately 10–15% annual crop loss. The fungus invades the plant via roots, colonizes ...
Environmental Influences on Pigeonpea-Fusarium udum Interactions and Stability of Genotypes to Fusarium Wilt
Fusarium wilt (Fusarium udum Butler) is an important biotic constraint to pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan L.) production worldwide. Breeding for fusarium wilt resistance continues to be an integral part of genetic improvement of ...
Virulence profiling of F. udum isolates to understand the current status of race/pathotypes prevalent in major pigeonpea growing areas in India
Out of 111 isolates, total 67 isolates were selected for virulence profiling based on geographical location, pathogenicity, cultural and morphological characters. The F. udum isolates represented 38 districts belonging to ...
Comparative genomics and prediction of conditionally dispensable sequences in legume–infecting Fusarium oxysporum formae speciales facilitates identification of candidate effectors
Background
Soil-borne fungi of the Fusarium oxysporum species complex cause devastating wilt disease on many crops including legumes that supply human dietary protein needs across many parts of the globe. We present and ...
AMMI and GGE Biplot Analyses for Mega-Environment Identification and Selection of Some High-Yielding Oat (Avena sativa L.) Genotypes for Multiple Environments
This paper reports an evaluation of eleven oat genotypes in four environments for two consecutive years to identify high-biomass-yielding, stable, and broadly adapted genotypes in selected parts of Ethiopia. Genotypes were ...
An Update on Genetic Resistance of Chickpea to Ascochyta Blight
Ascochyta blight (AB) caused by Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Labr. is an important and
widespread disease of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) worldwide. The disease is particularly severe
under cool and humid weather conditions. ...
