A SSR kit to study genetic diversity in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
A chickpea simple sequence repeat (SSR) marker reference kit has been developed based on the
genotyping of the global chickpea composite collection (3,000 accessions) with 35 SSR markers.
The kit consists of three pools ...
Assessment of spatio-temporal vegetation dynamics in tropical arid ecosystem of India using MODIS time-series vegetation indices
In the present study, we analyzed spatio-temporal vegetation dynamics to identify and delineate the vegetation stress zones in tropical arid ecosystem of Anantapuramu district, Andhra Pradesh, India, using Normalized ...
Combining Ascochyta blight and Botrytis grey mould resistance in chickpea through interspecific hybridization
Ascochyta blight (AB) caused by Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Labr. and Botrytis grey mould (BGM) caused
by Botrytis cinerea (Pers. ex Fr.) are important diseases of the aerial plant parts of chickpea in most chickpea growing
areas ...
Consultants' Meeting on Uses of Grain Legumes
The purpose of holding the Consultants' Meeting on Uses of Grain Legumes is to discuss the current utilization aspects of grains. of chickpea (Cicer arietinum), pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan), and ground nut (Arachis hypogea) ...
NARROWING YIELD GAPS THROUGH GENETIC IMPROVEMENT FOR FUSARIUM WILT RESISTANCE IN THREE PULSE CROPS OF THE SEMI-ARID TROPICS
Chickpea, pigeonpea and lentil constitute the major component of low-input agriculture in the semi-arid tropics
(SAT). These pulses play an important role in alleviating malnutrition by way of forming an inseparable ...
Modelling Trends in Streamflow and Groundwater Storage in an Agricultural Basin: A Case Study of Himayat Sagar Catchment, India
The most visible signs of hydrologic change in a catchment can be observed from trends in streamflow and groundwater levels. Increasing irrigation and associated groundwater extraction, as well as interception of runoff ...
Genetic relatedness studied at molecular level for huskless barley (Hordeum vulgare)
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is fourth major crop in the world that has been under cultivation since ancient times. It is classified into hulled and hulless barley according to the grain type. In India, hulless barley is ...
Bayesian estimation of heritability and genetic gain for subsets of genotypes evaluated in a larger set of genotypes in a block design
There are situations in which a number of inbred lines are found grouped into classes, depending on their origin
and phenology. Interest in such situations lies in the estimation of genotypic variations between the genotypes ...
