Pigeonpea breeding in eastern and southern Africa: challenges and opportunities
Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan [L.] Millspaugh) is an important multipurpose grain legume crop primarily grown in tropical and subtropical areas of Asia, Africa and Latin America. In Africa, the crop is grown for several purposes ...
Next-generation sequencing for identification of candidate genes for Fusarium wilt and sterility mosaic disease in pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan)
Pigeonpea is a resilient crop, which is relatively more drought tolerant than many other
legume crops. To understand the molecular mechanisms of this unique feature of
pigeonpea, 51 genes were selected using the Hidden ...
Genomic resources for pigeonpea
Pigeonpea is increasingly playing a
critical role in the lives of many farmers in
the semi-arid tropics, where it is grown for
both subsistence and commercial use. The
recent availability of genomic resources
opened a new ...
Analysis of genotyping-by-sequencing dataset of PRIL_A segregating for FW resistance
Genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) approach was used to identify and genotype SNPs. As a result, a high density genetic maps with 964 SNPs with an average marker distance of 1.16 cM was developed in PRIL_A. Based on the ...
