Herbicide tolerant, machine-harvestable chickpea, faba bean and lentil varieties
This product line aims at developing and making available to farmers machine harvestable and herbicide tolerant chickpea, lentil and faba bean varieties that are expected to reduce cost of cultivation through labor saving, ...
Morpho-biochemical characterization of a RIL population for seed parameters and identification of candidate genes regulating seed size trait in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.)
The seed size and shape in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) are important quality traits as these influences the milled grain yield, cooking time, and market class of the grains. Linkage analysis was done for seed size in a ...
Relevance of limited-transpiration trait for lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) in South Asia
Drought is one of the most important environmental factors that limit crop production. It has been hypothesized that a limited-transpiration trait under high vapor pressure deficit (VPD) is a mechanism for water conservation ...
Genotype by Environment Interaction Effect on Grain Iron and Zinc Concentration of Indian and Mediterranean Lentil Genotypes
Lentil grains with high nutritional value qualify as a promising candidate for alleviation
of micronutrient malnutrition in South Asia and North Africa. Genetic variation for micronutrient
concentration in germplasm is ...
Effect of drought, heat and their interaction on the growth, yield and photosynthetic function of lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) genotypes varying in heat and drought sensitivity
Rising temperatures and drought stress limit the growth and production potential of lentil (Lens culinarisMedikus), particularly during reproductive growth and seed filling. The present study aimed to (i) investigate the ...
Development of a panel of unigene derived polymorphic EST-SSR markers in lentil using public database information
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.), a diploid (2n = 14) with a genome size greater than 4000 Mbp, is an important cool season food legume grown worldwide. The availability of genomic resources is limited in this crop species. ...
Biodiversity and varietal development of pulses in South Asia
South Asia (Afghanistan, Bhutan, Bangladesh, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka) is the largest producer, consumer and importer of pulses with 28% and 38% share in global production and acreage. The present ...
Identification of molecular markers associated with rust resistance genes in lentil (Lens culinaris sub sp. culinaris)
Lentil rust caused by Uromyces vicia- fabae (Pers.) J. Schroet is the most widespread and economically
important disease in Ethiopia, Bangladesh, India, Nepal, and Morocco. The objective of this study was
to determine the ...
Influence of drought and heat stress, applied independently or in combination during seed development, on qualitative and quantitative aspects of seeds of lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) genotypes, differing in drought sensitivity
Terminal droughts, along with high temperatures, are becoming more frequent to strongly influence the seed development in cool‐season pulses like lentil. In the present study, the lentil plants growing outdoors under natural ...
Herbicide tolerance Faba bean, chickpea and lentils
The research aimed to screen faba bean, Chickpea and lentils to diverse herbicides. 50 lentil genotypes were screened to Imizathapyr and Metribuzin; 226 Chickpea lines screened to Imizathapyr and Metribuzin, among them 100 ...
