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 ...
Opportunities to improve the seasonal dynamics of water use in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) to enhance yield increase in water‑limited environments
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) is one of the most important annual food legumes that plays an important role in the food and nutritional security of millions in the world. Lentil is mainly grown under rainfed environments, ...
Candidate genes for flowering time in lentil
Study showed high heritability estimate (h2=0.82) for flowering time in lentil. Molecular diversity analysis with 75 polymorphic SSR markers resulted in amplification of 266 loci with 1-3 loci per marker. Model-based cluster ...

AMMI Biplot Analysis for Genotype X Environment Interaction on Yield Trait of High Fe content Lentil Genotypes in Terai and Mid-Hill Environment of Nepal
Adolescence covers 10-19 years of human age and is the transition period of life. The prevalence of Iron (Fe) deficiency in Nepal is around 23% population. High Fe content biofortied lines had developed to overwhelm the ...
Analysis of genetic structure and interrelationships in lentil species using morphological and SSR markers
Genetic structure and relationships of 130 lentil accessions belonging to six taxa were analysed. For this purpose, seven morphological traits and 31 polymorphic simple sequence repeat (SSR) primers were used for this ...
Agronomic management of lentil under relay cropping system
A field experiment was conducted at District Seed Farm, Kalyani, Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya (22.97oN, 88.43oE, 9.75m MSL), Nadia, West Bengal, India during rabi season of 2014-16 to identify the optimum seed rate ...
Analysis of an intraspecific RIL population uncovers genomic segments harbouring multiple QTL for seed relevant traits in lentil (Lens culinaris L.)
Improving seed related traits remains key objective in lentil breeding. In recent years, genomic resources have shown great promise to accelerate crop improvement. However, limited genomic resources in lentil greatly ...
Comparative Agronomy Performance and Reaction to Fusarium Wilt of Lens culinaris X L. orientalis and L. culinaris X L. ervoides derivatives.
The development of transgressive phenotype in the segregating populations has been speculated to contribute to niche divergence of hybrid lineages, which occurs most frequently at larger genetic distances. Wild Lens species ...
Mapping Suitable Areas for Growing Pulses in Rice-Fallows using Multi-Criteria Spatial Decisions
Food legumes (Pulses) play an important role in ensuring food and nutritional as well environmental security through crop diversication and sustainable intensification in India and elsewhere. India imports nearly 4-5 ...
