Sequencing chickpea genomes: genotyping and high-quality reference genomes for association studies and breeding
Natural populations of species closely related to cultivated chickpea (Cicer arietinum) were
identified and collected systematically using ecological principles from their native range in
southeastern Turkey. Collection ...
Validation of ICRISAT based leasyscan screening system for utilization in breeding hybrids/hybrid parents for different agro-ecologies
Brief on the validation of ICRISAT based leasyscan screening system for utilization in breeding hybrids/hybrid parents for different agro-ecologies
Groundnut lines that combine several desirable traits into single genotype to meet the needs of the farmer, consumer and industry.
Single-seed descent, pedigree, and backcross methods of breeding are used to improve the target traits. Selection in segregating populations are enabled by (a) markers for three traits, resistance to rust and late leaf ...
Genetic variability for mineral nutrients in lentil
The present study was conducted to analyze the concentration of 8 important mineral nutrients namely calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), selenium (Se), and cadmium (Cd) ...
Problem soils in cool season food legumes- Current knowledge and future prospects
Problem soils impose various stresses on plants and reduce crop yield significantly. As a
sizeable area under food legume crops falls under the problem soils, development of tolerant
varieties and appropriate agronomic ...
Advanced Genomics and Breeding Technologies to Accelerate Genetic Gains
The mini symposium has been planned to discuss advances in genomics and breeding methodologies and their deployment in crop improvement programs. The mini symposium will have a few presentations in modern genomic and ...
Sources of resistance in the existing breeding germplasm will be identified for incorporation in the elite cultivar/variety
In order to identify new sources of resistance to net blotch, a FIGS subset consisting of 96 barley accessions was screened with a mixture of 20-isolates of net blotch collected from different agro-climatic regions of ...
Genomic tools in cowpea breeding programs: status and perspectives
Cowpea is one of the most important grain legumes in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). It provides strong support to the livelihood of small-scale farmers through its contributions to their nutritional security, income generation ...
Diversification of male sterility sources in hybrid breeding programme
Wild relatives accessions are crossed with the cultivated types and the derived populations are searched for the expression of male sterility traits. The identified male sterile are tested for the stability of the sterility ...
