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 ...
Combining Ascochyta blight and Botrytis grey mould resistance in chickpea through interspecific hybridization
Ascochyta blight (AB) caused by Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Labr. and Botrytis grey mould (BGM) caused
by Botrytis cinerea (Pers. ex Fr.) are important diseases of the aerial plant parts of chickpea in most chickpea growing
areas ...
Individual and combined effects of transient drought and heat stress on carbon assimilation and seed filling in chickpea
High temperatures and decreased rainfall are detrimental to yield in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), particularly
during grain filling. This study aimed to (i) assess the individual and combined effects of drought and heat ...
NARROWING YIELD GAPS THROUGH GENETIC IMPROVEMENT FOR FUSARIUM WILT RESISTANCE IN THREE PULSE CROPS OF THE SEMI-ARID TROPICS
Chickpea, pigeonpea and lentil constitute the major component of low-input agriculture in the semi-arid tropics
(SAT). These pulses play an important role in alleviating malnutrition by way of forming an inseparable ...
Modeling the soil-water-crop-atmosphere system to improve crop and water productivity in Stage II of Indira Gandhi Canal Command Area
The study entitled “Modelling the Soil-Water-Crop-Atmosphere System to Improve Land and Water Productivity in Stage II of IGNP” was carried out at village Amarpura (Bajju), Bikaner, Rajasthan, during 'kharif' and 'rabi' ...
Intensification and resilience building: Evaluate High yielding and dual purpose crops/ varieties, integrated crop management ( cereals, legumes and cash crops))
A total of 124 Rabi demonstrations have been taken in seven targeted villages of CRP 1.1 The improved varieties were tested with or without recommended POP and the yield was compared with ...
