Development of segregating populations for mechanical harvesting and herbicide tolerance
For making crosses, parents were planted on 4 m row plot with inter row distance of 60 cm. F1 seeds were space planted (25 cm between plants) in each row. F2 populations were grown on 50 m row plots, whereas F3 and F5 ...
Heat tolerant superior lines
• 18 Advanced breeding lines of kabuli chickpea were evaluated for their performance under normal and summer (heat stress) conditions during Nov-Jan 2016 and Feb to Apr 2016, respectively. Experiments were conducted in RBD ...
Study the response of eight chickpea genotypes to drought, heat and drought x heat interaction

Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense tropical race 4 of bananas: Disease spread and global loss projections
Scientists have recently estimated that tropical race 4 of the fungal pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc TR4) could spread to 1.65 million hectares of current banana lands by 2040 if no significant interventions ...
Protein content of seed reduced
• Advanced breeding lines, 30 Desi and 18 kabuli, were evaluated for their yield performance under rainfed conditions and heat stress conditions during 2015 and 2016, respectively.
• These lines were planted in randomized ...
