Genetic Variability of Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) for Water Logging and Salinity Tolerance under in vitro and in vivo Conditions
Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) genotypes acquired from diverse sources, were screened for water logging and salinity tolerance under laboratory and field conditions. Analysis of variance revealed significant ...
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) ...
Genotype x environment interaction and stability analysis in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.)
Genotype x environment interaction was evaluated under eight environments during lentil growing season of 2013/14 and 2014/15 for grain yield and their component characters of twenty one promising genotypes selected from ...
Enhancing the value of genetic resources for use in pigeonpea improvement
The ICRISAT genebank
conserves over 13,700 accessions of
pigeonpea from 74 countries. The collection
serves as insurance against genetic erosion
and provides rich source of diversity for crop
improvement. Pigeonpea ...
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 ...
An Update on Genetic Resistance of Chickpea to Ascochyta Blight
Ascochyta blight (AB) caused by Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Labr. is an important and
widespread disease of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) worldwide. The disease is particularly severe
under cool and humid weather conditions. ...
Development of a High-Density Linkage Map and Tagging Leaf Spot Resistance in Pearl Millet Using Genotyping-by-Sequencing Markers
Pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br; also Cenchrus americanus
(L.) Morrone] is an important crop throughout the world but
better genomic resources for this species are needed to facilitate
crop improvement. Genome ...
Global Resources of Genetic Diversity in Peanut
Peanut or groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is an annual herb, with geocarpic fruits, and an indeterminate growth habit. It is classified
as a legume in the plant family Fabaceae. Carl Linneaus first described the cultivated ...
Interspecific hybridization to introduce useful genetic variability for pigeonpea improvement
Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L. ) Millspaugh) is an import ant grain legume grown in t ropical and subt ropical regions of t he world. Narrow
genet ic base coupled wit h low levels of resist ance ...
Barley
Barley being the earliest domesticated cereal is one of the major world crops today. Wide adaptation of barley to ecogeographic conditions and higher response to low input and stressful environments make it globally ...
