InDel markers: An extended marker resource for molecular breeding in chickpea
Chickpea is one of the most important food legumes that holds the key to meet rising global food and nutritional demand. In order to deploy molecular breeding approaches in crop improvement programs, user friendly and cost ...
Photoperiod Response of Annual Wild Species and Cultivated Chickpea on Phenology, Growth, and Yield Traits
Frequent utilization of wild Cicer species in
chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) improvement
programs, as well as the regeneration of these
wild species for efficient conservation in genebanks,
is hindered due to photoperiod ...
Seed Info No. 56
Seed Info aims to stimulate information exchange and regular communication between seed staff in the Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region and beyond. Its purpose is to help strengthen national seed programs ...
Estimating Targets for GLDC
The SRF was designed to illustrate the impact of agricultural research for development by 2030; it evaluates systemwide anticipated achievements towards the Sustainable Development Goals measured by the three SLOs of ...
A decade of Tropical Legumes projects: Development and adoption of improved varieties, creation of market-demand to benefit smallholder farmers and empowerment of national programmes in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia
This article highlights 12 years (2007–2019) of research, achievements, lessons learned, challenges and gaps in discovery‐to‐delivery research in legumes emanating from three projects, collectively called Tropical Legumes ...
CRP-GLDC Annual Report 2018
The CRP-GLDC envisions to increase the productivity, profitability, resilience and marketability of critical and nutritious grain legume (chickpea, cowpea, pigeonpea, groundnut, lentil, soybean) and cereal (sorghum, pearl ...
Assessment of Past Performance and Lessons Learned
To guide program design, we assessed past research, highlighting successes and failures, both to benchmark projected gains and to derive strategic lessons for the future. This required a progress report on research on the ...
Assessment of Genetic Variability and Heritability of Agronomic Traits of Ethiopian Chickpea (Cicerarietinum L) Landraces
Ethiopia has a large number of Desi type chickpea landraces. In the country, limited information is available on the performance of the landraces regarding of important agronomic traits. Thus, 202 chickpea landraces and ...
Variety adoption and seed commercial behavior: Implications for the chickpea seed system in Ethiopia
This Working Paper presents the yield gaps, adoption of improved varieties, and commercial behavior relating to seed by smallholder chickpea producers. It is based on primary data generated in 2017 from 612 randomly selected ...
Effect of interaction among variety, planting date and plant density on incidence of luteoviruses naturally infecting chickpea in Al Ghab region of Syria
Luteoviruses (family Luteoviridae), persistently transmitted by aphids are among the most important viruses which cause economical losses and show yellowing and stunting symptoms on legume crops worldwide, including Syria. ...
