Whole genome re-sequencing reveals genome-wide variations among parental lines of 16 mapping populations in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
Background: Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the second most important grain legume cultivated by resource poor farmers in South
Asia and SubSaharan
Africa. In order to harness the untapped genetic potential available for ...
Identification of hyper nodulation mutant lines in chickpea using TiLLING population
For genotyping the following steps were performed for 1300 TILLING lines:
Fresh leaf tissue was collected from 1300 mutant lines
DNA was extracted.
DNA quality and quantity was measured by using NanoDrop, ...
Seed Info No. 50
Seed Info aims to stimulate information exchange and regular communication among seed staff in the Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region and beyond. Its purpose is to help strengthen national seed programs ...
Analysis of chickpea yield gap and water-limited potential yield inIran
Iran is one of the major chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) producing countries of the world. Average chickpeayield in Iran is about 500 kg ha−1while the world average is 900 kg ha−1. The objective of this study wasto investigate ...
Integrated pest management of food legume insect pests in North Africa, West and Central Asia
Food legumes (chickpea, lentil, faba bean) are important crops in North Africa, West and Central Asia
(CWANA). However, their production is adversely affected by a number of insect pests such as chickpea
Leaf miner and Pod ...
Genetics of virulence and pathogenic diversity for Ascochyta Blight affecting Chickpea
This research was conducted to study the inheritance of virulence, mating
type distribution, pathogen diversity for Ascochyta rabiei affecting chickpea, and to
screen sub set chickpea accessions against the highly virulent ...
A Bayesian analysis of data from on-farm trials in legumes in Afghanistan
On-farm demonstration (OFD) are conducted to provide a real-time comparison of the recommended technology and the farmer practice in farmer’s field, and are effective and easy way to convince the farmers on the potential ...
Genotypic variation in soil water use and root distribution and their implications for drought tolerance in chickpea
Chickpeas are often grown under receding soil moisture and suffer ~50% yield losses due to drought stress.
The timing of soil water use is considered critical for the efficient use of water under drought and to reduce yield ...
