Genetic Adjustment to Changing Climates: Chickpea
It has now been predicted that future crops and agriculture systems have to face variable climates and these changes require adjustment of crops to feed the world growing population. For sustainable global food and feed ...
Pulses: an integral component of mitigation and adaptation under climate change
Modern agriculture is facing with great challenges. Growing world population will cause a "perfect storm" of food, energy and water shortages by 2050. Demand for food and energy will jump 70% and 100%, and for fresh water ...
Genotype × Environment interactioon in Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) under Afghanistan environments and identification of high yielding genotypes
To meet the growing demand of food and protein of Afghan population, winter-sown chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is an important contributor but its productivity needs to be increased. Therefore this study was conducted to ...
Temperature-Stratified Screening Of Chickpea (Cicer Arietinum L.) Genetic Resource Collections Reveals Very Limited Reproductive Chilling Tolerance Compared To Its Annual Wild Relatives
Low reproductive chilling tolerance in chickpea impairs ovule fertilization, delaying pod set, exposing the crop to terminal drought throughout much of its distribution range. Despite this realization, little progress has ...
Characterising root trait variability in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) germplasm
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is an important grain legume crop but its sustainable production is challenged by predicted climate changes, which are likely to increase production limitations and uncertainty in yields. ...
