Morphophysiological diversity of rhizobia nodulating pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan L. Millsp.) growing in Ethiopia
Pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) is an important protein source grown in several tropical and sub-tropical countries, and is considered a multi-purpose plant that is resistant to the conditions where drought and ...
Assessing the Competitiveness of Smallholders Chickpea Production in the Central Highlands of Ethiopia
Chickpea is an important food legume in Ethiopia which provides sources of livelihood for millions of smallholder farmers. Currently, it has become an important high value crop that promotes commercialization. This study ...

A Decade of Research Progress in Chickpea and Lentil Breeding and Genetics
This paper summarizes achievements of chickpea and lentil breeding during the last decade /2005-2015/ in Ethiopia. Gentic yield gains from decadal breeding efforts were 80 kg/ha/year for chickpea and 52 kg/ha/yr for lentil. ...
Genetic Variability and Heritability in Ethiopian Grasspea (lathyrus sativus l.) Accessions
Comprehensive information on genetic variability and selection parameters is very crucial to design breeding strategies. However, very limited information is available in Ethiopian grasspea germplasm. Therefore, the present ...
Integrated breeding approaches for improving drought andheat adaptation in chickpea (Cicer arietinumL.)
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is a dry season food legume largely grown on residual
soil moisture after the rainy season. The crop often experiences moisture stress
towards end of the crop season (terminal drought). The ...
