Scope for improvement of yield under drought through the root traits in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is a major grain legume crop in South Asia, and terminal drought severely constrains its productivity. In this review, we describe how root systems can improve the productivity of chickpea ...
Assessing Genetic Variability for Root Traits and Identification of Trait-Specific Germplasm in Chickpea Reference Set
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is a major grain legume cultivated largely on residual soil moisture in the arid and semiarid regions of the world. Terminal drought stress is one of the major causes of yield loss, and a deep ...
Association of mid-reproductive stage canopy temperature depression with the molecular markers and grain yields of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) germplasm under terminal drought
Canopy temperature depression (CTD) has been used to estimate crop yield and drought tolerance. However, when to measure CTD for the best breeding selection efficacy has seldom been addressed. The objectives of this study ...
