Sustainable use of natural resources for crop intensification and betterlivelihoods in the rainfed semi-arid tropics of Central India
tIn Indian semi-arid tropics (SAT) in general and central part i.e. Madhya Pradesh state specifically; thereare large yield gaps in most of the rainfed crops between current farmers’ yields and achievable ones.Soil fertility ...
Genomic resources for pigeonpea
Pigeonpea is increasingly playing a critical role in the lives of many farmers in the semiarid
tropics, where it is grown for both
subsistence and commercial use. The recent availability of genomic resources opened a new ...
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 ...
A geo-informatics approach for estimating water resources management components and their interrelationships
A remote sensing based geo-informatics approach was developed to estimate water resources management (WRM) components across a large irrigation scheme in the Indus Basin of Pakistan. The approach provides a generalized ...
Agricultural Productivity in the WANA Region
The interest of governments, international organizations, NGOs and the general public has recently been aroused by studies considering the use of existing agricultural technology, the use of innovations in such technology ...
Genomic tools in cowpea breeding programs: status and perspectives
Cowpea is one of the most important grain legumes in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). It provides strong support to the livelihood of small-scale farmers through its contributions to their nutritional security, income generation ...
Transcriptome analyses reveal genotype- and developmental stage-specific molecular responses to drought and salinity stresses in chickpea
Drought and salinity are the major factors that limit chickpea production worldwide. We performed
whole transcriptome analyses of chickpea genotypes to investigate the molecular basis of drought
and salinity stress ...
Comparison of rank-based stability statistics for grain yield in rainfed durum wheat
Several rank-based stability statistics are in use, but little information is available on their repeatability and accuracy. The main objective was to examine the repeatability, similarity and accuracy of the estimates of ...
Evaluation of designated hybrid seed parents of pearl millet for blast resistance
One hundred sixty designated B-lines (maintainers of male sterile lines) of pearl millet were screened for blast
resistance under greenhouse conditions along with a resistant (ICMR 06444) and a susceptible (ICMB 95444)
check ...
Molecular cloning, characterization and expression analysis of a heat shock protein 10 (Hsp10) from Pennisetum glaucum (L.), a C4 cereal plant from the semi-arid tropics
Heat shock proteins (Hsp10) belong to the
ubiquitous family of heat-shock molecular chaperones
found in the organelles of both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
Chaperonins assist the folding of nascent and stressdestabilized
proteins. ...
