Herbicide tolerant, machine-harvestable chickpea, faba bean and lentil varieties
This product line aims at developing and making available to farmers machine harvestable and herbicide tolerant chickpea, lentil and faba bean varieties that are expected to reduce cost of cultivation through labor saving, ...
Food Legumes and Rising Temperatures: Effects, Adaptive Functional Mechanisms Specific to Reproductive Growth Stage and Strategies to Improve Heat Tolerance
Ambient temperatures are predicted to rise in the future owing to several reasons associated with global climate changes. These temperature increases can result in heat stress- a severe threat to crop production in most ...
Evaluate Introgression Lines (ILs) of chickpea cultivars JAKI 9218 and JG 16 carrying “QTL-hotspot” for drought tolerance traits at multi-locations
•Flowering time of introgression lines (ILs) was in the range of 48-56 d under both rainfed and irrigated conditions. However, the maturity time was prolonged by one week under irrigated conditions (107 d) compared to ...
Molecular mapping of QTLs associated with heat tolerance in chickpea
A genetic map spanning 529.11 cM and comprising 271 genotyping by sequencing (GBS) based single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers was constructed. Composite interval mapping (CIM) analysis revealed two consistent genomic ...
Development of segregating populations for heat stress tolerance in chickpea
Breeding materials for heat tolerance were at different stages of development. A total of 4 F1s, 5 F2 populations, 3 F4 populations, and 16 F5 populations were advanced to next generation in normal season 2015-16 at ...
Herbicide tolerance in chickpea, lentil and faba bean
Weed management in cool-season legumes (chickpea, lentil and faba bean) is difficult in the absence of effective post-emergence
herbicides, while manual weeding is expensive, and pre-emergence herbicides are effective only ...
Temperature sensitivity of food legumes: a physiological insight
Of the various environmental stresses that a
plant can experience, temperature has the widest and most
far-reaching effects on legumes. Temperature extremes,
both high (heat stress) and low (cold stress), are injurious ...
Evaluate the performance of tall chickpea genotypes under different planting densities at multi-locations
At Nandyal and Sehore locations, reducing the inter row or intra row distance showed seed yield advantage over normal spacing of 30 x 10 cm. At Sehore, reducing both the inter and intra row distances significantly increased ...
