In collaboration with NARS prepared release proposal for ICGV 02266 a farmer preferred variety identified in Odisha for state release. ICGV 02266 is a high pod yielding, drought tolerant variety, having medium-bold kernels, ...
CRP-GLDC Annual Report 2021
The CGIAR Research Program on Grain Legumes and Dryland Cereals (CRP-GLDC) is an international consortium led by the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) and implemented by CGIAR, and ...
Conduct agronomic studies for optimization of nutrient requirements of 2-3 released chickpea varieties
Summarizing the effect of rehizobium, location and varieties on the biological and economic responses of chickpea as summarized in the Tables below is inspiring. The results indicated that chickpea yield can be improved ...
Assessment of millet-groundnut intercropping systems efficiency in Jigawa and Kano states.
In this study, an intercropping experiment consisting of millet and groundnut was established at Dutse (Jigawa) and
Minjibir (Kano) to compare the efficiencies of intercropping systems. Two intercropping systems (2:2 and ...
Community typology framed by normative climate for agricultural innovation, empowerment, and poverty reduction
This paper employs the concepts of gender norms and agency to advance understanding of
inclusive agricultural innovation processes and their contributions to empowerment and poverty
reduction at the village level. We present ...
Estimating the Potential Area Adoption of GLDC Crop Cultivars Released in 2018
The CGIAR Research Program on Grain Legumes and Dryland Cereals (CRP-GLDC) has set aspirational targets to contribute to System-Level Outcomes (SLOs) on reducing poverty, improving food and nutritional security for health ...
Evaluation of wide hybridization derived lines for yield and related traits
Wild relatives of pigeonpea possess desirable attributes to combat biotic stresses. The introgressed lines also serve as source for genetic enhancement for yield and related agronomical traits.
Pigeonpea breeding in eastern and southern Africa: challenges and opportunities
Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan [L.] Millspaugh) is an important multipurpose grain legume crop primarily grown in tropical and subtropical areas of Asia, Africa and Latin America. In Africa, the crop is grown for several purposes ...
Molecular and morphological diversity in Phytophthora cajani isolates in India
Morphological and cultural variability of 14 isolates of Phytophthora cajani collected from major pigeonpea growing areas in India was studied on different media namely potato dextrose agar (PDA), V8 juice agar (V8JA), ...
Effect of phosphorus (P) application on nutrient uptake, biomass, pod and seed formation in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp])
Phosphorous (P) deficiency is a serious problem which limits the
productivity of cowpea in sub-Saharan Africa.
• P deficiency affects negatively the formation of nodule (1, 2) and the
symbiotic fixation of N2 by limiting ...
