Spatial distribution and association of biophysical factors with chickpea chlorotic stunt and pea seed-borne mosaic viruses affecting legume crops in Ethiopia
Food legumes are key commodities produced in sole and mixed cropping system in Ethiopia. Their productivity has been affected recently by virus infections. Field surveys were conducted from 2018/19 to 2021/22 cropping ...
Genetic diversity of two poleroviruses affecting faba bean and chickpea crops in Tunisia
Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is the most cultivated grain legume representing 70% of the total food legume planted area in Tunisia (Khamassi et al., 2021), followed by chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). These crops offer an ...
Phytosanitary management of ICARDA’s germplasm seed collections for safe movement and better future use
Germplasm exchange from international genebanks and breeding programs is vital for successful crop improvement programs. More than 10,000 different accessions of wheat, barley, lentil, faba bean, chickpea, grasspea, and ...
Identifying Genetic Linkage Groups and Markers for Leaf Miner Resistance in Chickpea through QTL Analysis and Field Validation
Chickpea is a commonly grown crop, but it is vulnerable to biotic and abiotic stresses. Leaf miner (Liriomyza cicerina) is a pest that can cause severe yield losses of up to 40% if not properly controlled. This study was ...
Plant Health Innovation Platform at Qob Elias, Lebanon: farmer participatory approaches for wide dissemination of pest management innovations
Integrated pest and disease management (IPDM) represents a range of environmentally-sound approaches to crop protection and is increasingly recognized as an essential component of sustainable agricultural development. To ...
Potential of Volatile Organic Compounds in the management of insect pests and diseases of chickpea
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) is the second legume crop cultivated in Morocco after the Faba bean, and presents economical and nutritional benefits. However, the crop productivity is low due to biotic factors and drought. ...
Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) Revealed Markers Associated with Agronomic Traits in the MAGIC-Subset Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) Population
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the second most important cool season grain legume in the world. It is largely grown under rainfed conditions on residual soil moisture. In this study, a subset of 171 improved chickpea ...
Identification of New Genetic Resources Under Drought Stress in Response to Roots and Nodules in chickpea
Ten high nodulation and two poor nodulation chickpea genotypes were selected from the previous field experiment to study the effect of drought stress on various nodules, root characteristics, and physiological traits of ...
Development of Multiple Stress-Resistant Kabuli Chickpea Germplasm for Diverse Growing Regions
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) is an important crop in dry areas of the world. The major production challenges of chickpea production are Ascochyta blight (AB), wilt/root rot, cold, and drought. ICARDA is mandated to develop ...
Genotype × Environment Interactions and Identification of Stable Sources of Resistance to Ascochyta Blight in Chickpea
Ascochyta blight (AB) caused by Ascochyta rabei (Pass.) Labr. is a significant constraint that adversely affects the productivity and quality of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). Over the past two decades, numerous resistant ...
