A Genome-wide Combinatorial Strategy Dissects Complex Genetic Architecture of Seed Coat Color in Chickpea
The study identified 9045 high-quality SNPs employing both genome-wide GBS- and
candidate gene-based SNP genotyping assays in 172, including 93 cultivated (desi and
kabuli) and 79 wild chickpea accessions. The GWAS in a ...
Salt Stress Delayed Flowering and Reduced Reproductive Success of Chickpea (Cicer arietinumL.), A Response Associated with Na+Accumulation in Leaves
Salinity is known to reduce chickpea yields in several regions of the world. Although ion toxicity associated with salinity leads to yield reductions in a number of other crops, its role in reducing yields in chickpea ...
Seed Info No. 26
Seed Info aims to stimulate information exchange and communication among seed staff in the Central,
West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region. The purpose is to contribute towards the development of stronger national seed ...
Efficiency of marker-assisted selection in detection of ascochyta blight resistance in Tunisian chickpea breeding lines
Ascochyta blight (AB) resistance reactions were studied in 23 chickpea cultivars, mainly advanced
lines and Tunisian varieties from the Tunisian chickpea breeding program, growing both at two locations and
under controlled ...
Seed Info No. 40
Seed Info aims to stimulate information exchange and regular communication among seed staff in the Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region. The purpose is to help strengthen national seed programs and thus ...
Chickpea: an alternative crop for rainfed agriculture in Uzbekistan
In Uzbekistan, where agriculture is an important source of income for rural population, land degradation is a major challenge for the environment and the food security. The traditional focus of rainfed agriculture on ...

Water and land productivities of wheat and food legumes with deficit supplemental irrigation in a Mediterranean environment
Selecting appropriate crops and applying deficit irrigation can help increase water productivity in waterlimited
regions such as the Mediterranean. The objective of this study was to develop water production
functions of ...
The extent of grain yield and plant growth enhancement by plant growth-promoting broad-spectrum Streptomyces sp. in chickpea
The physiological and molecular responses of five strains of Streptomyces sp. (CAI-17, CAI-68, CAI-78, KAI-26 and KAI-27), with their proven potential for charcoal rot disease control in sorghum and plant growth-promotion ...
