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 ...
Secondary Data Socio Economic Survey Questionnaire Instrument
The document is a secondary data socio-economic survey questionnaire instrument tool. This survey was developed with the aim to be used for secondary data collection towards conducting the study focusing on "Economic Impact ...
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 ...
Use of expressed sequence tag microsatellite markers for exploring genetic diversity in lentil and related wild species
Expressed sequence tag-simple sequence repeat (EST-SSR) markers were used to analyse genetic diversity among three Lens species. The SSR loci amplified successfully in wild species, with 94·82% transferability in Lens ...
Economic Impact of Lentil Cultivation on Marginal and Small Farm Households in Eastern India
An unsatisfactory gain in pulse productivity since last six decades in India emerges
severe threat to the overall food and nutritional security and also resilient livelihood of the
nation. Due to failure of National Food ...
Comparative Study of Relative Water, Chlorophyll and Proline Content in Drought Tolerant and Susceptible Genotypes of Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.)
The present experiment was carried out at the Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, West Bengal, India to study the effect of imposed drought on relative water content, chlorophyll ...
Microsatellite marker-based genetic diversity analysis of elite lentil lines differing in grain iron and zinc concentration
Trial comprising fifty lentil genotypes was con- ducted at three locations in India during year 2013–2014 for estimation of grain Fe and Zn concentrations and to analyze G 9 E interactions by employing the additive main ...
Primary Data Socio Economic Survey Questionnaire Instrument - Evaluation of marketing dynamics in seed pulses sector.
This survey instrument tool is designed to collect information from lentil growers in the State of West Bengal - India. The data collected will be analyzed to evaluate marketing dynamics in pulses and assessment of lentil ...
Genotypic variation in root architectural traits under contrasting phosphorus levels in Mediterranean and Indian origin lentil genotypes
The development of phosphorus-efficient crop cultivars boosts productivity while lowering eutrophication in the environment. It is feasible to improve the efficiency of phosphorus (P) absorption in lentils by enhancing ...
Extended Summary 2019-2020, 2020-2021 on Economic Impact Assessment of Improved Technology Adopted by Lentil Growers in West Bengal
This report summarize the results from the impact assessment study that attempts to evaluate the economic impact of ICARDA improved lentil varieties with regards to change in lentil productivity, level of input use and key ...
