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) ...
Lentil in India
Lentil in India roll-up
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 ...
Livelihood analysis of lentil (Lens culinaris) farmers in Chanduali district of Uttar Pradesh
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) is one of the most important pulse crops in India, which plays a major role in supplementing the income of small and marginal farmers of Chanduali district of Uttar Pradesh. One of the major ...
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 ...
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 ...
Seed Info No. 50
Seed Info aims to stimulate information exchange and regular communication among seed staff in the Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region and beyond. Its purpose is to help strengthen national seed programs ...
Integrated pest management of food legume insect pests in North Africa, West and Central Asia
Food legumes (chickpea, lentil, faba bean) are important crops in North Africa, West and Central Asia
(CWANA). However, their production is adversely affected by a number of insect pests such as chickpea
Leaf miner and Pod ...
