Narrowing the yield gap of food legumes through integrated management of parasitic weeds in the highlands of Ethiopia
The project was implemented in two districts of the Amhara region of Ethiopia. The parasitic weed (Orobanche crenata) is distributed in different districts of the Northern highlands expanding its ecological range since ...
Herbicide tolerance Faba bean, chickpea and lentils
The research aimed to screen faba bean, Chickpea and lentils to diverse herbicides. 50 lentil genotypes were screened to Imizathapyr and Metribuzin; 226 Chickpea lines screened to Imizathapyr and Metribuzin, among them 100 ...
Evaluation of segregating populations for inheritance studies
Lentil: 179 single crosses were successful and advanced in Summer season at Terbol (Attachment: MEL-F03). Based on parental traits, only 35 F1s carried forward for further evaluation as F2 populations in Winter season. At ...
Community Seed Production of Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) and Lentil (Lens culinaris Medic) in Ethiopia
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) and lentil (Lens culinaris Medic) are the most important grain legumes
covering 21.3% of the total acreage (1.6 million ha) and 24.1% of production (23.2 millon tons) of
all pulse crops in ...
Chickpea lines screened for resistance to Leafminer and pod borer
High infestation by leaf miner was observed this year. Two accessions (IG 125018 and IG 125032) confirmed resistance to leaf miner with rating of 3 in the 1-9 visual damage score (VDS). Four others lines showed moderate ...
Occurrence and Distribution of Chickpea Diseases in Central and Southern Parts of India
Structured survey was conducted between November and January in the four major chickpea and pigeonpea growing states (Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Maharashtra) in central and southern parts of India. A GPS based survey ...
Development of segregating populations for heat stress tolerance in chickpea
Breeding materials for heat tolerance were at different stages of development. A total of 4 F1s, 5 F2 populations, 3 F4 populations, and 16 F5 populations were advanced to next generation in normal season 2015-16 at ...
Screening of germplasm and elite lines for machine harvestability traits
This report contains 7 activities associated mainly with mechanical harvestable traits. These activities are: (1) Evaluation of performance of lentil genotypes for machine harvestability; (2) Genome Wide Association Studies ...
RNA-seq based transcriptome profiling, identification and validation of heat stress responsive genes in chickpea
Six contrasting heat responsive (tolerant - ICCV 92944, ICC 1356, ICC 15614 and sensitive - ICC 5912, ICC 4567, ICC 10685) genotypes were selected for the study. Heat stress was imposed using growth chamber facility, ...
