Next-generation sequencing for identification of candidate genes for Fusarium wilt and sterility mosaic disease in pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan)
Pigeonpea is a resilient crop, which is relatively more drought tolerant than many other
legume crops. To understand the molecular mechanisms of this unique feature of
pigeonpea, 51 genes were selected using the Hidden ...
Evaluation early and extra-early chickpea lines for grain yield and other adaptive traits in Ethiopia
Fifteen early and extra early maturing chickpea lines including the standard checks (‘Ejere’ and ‘Minjar’) were evaluated for earliness at Debre Zeit during 2014 off season, 2014 main season, 2015 main season and 2016 ...
First report of root rot caused by Pythiumspp. on chickpea in South Africa
Chickpea is a relatively new crop in the NE South Africa. High incidences of plant death were observed in an experiment that was established in 2012 in Mziniti, South Africa to assess the agronomic performance of 66 elite ...
Dry root rot (Rhizoctonia bataticola (Taub.) Butler): an emerging disease of chickpea – where do we stand?
Dry root rot caused by Rhizoctonia bataticola (Macrophomina phaseolina) of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is gaining importance in the changed scenario of climate when growing crop is predisposed to high temperature and ...
Produce NS through progeny rows (2) Produce BS from NS bulk (3) Produce FS from BS
Breeder Seed is produced from NS. Rouging is done at vegetative and at the time of harvest. BS is graded and supplied. Nucleus Seed (NS) is produced from the Basic Seed constituted from the uniform progenies. Recycling ...
Obcordate leaf shape hybrid parental line development
Quality hybrid production is the key requisite in the commercial hybrid production. The genetically uniform parental lines and commercial hybrids are necessary in production and marketing of quality hybrid crops. Grow out ...
Impact Assessment @ ICRISAT
The main points of the presentation are: a) The outputs from impact assessment studies provide essential insights and feedback to the research and development process at ICRISAT. b) The majority of ex-post impact assessment ...
Climate Change vis-a-vis Pest Management
Global warming and climate change will trigger major changes in geographical distribution and population dynamics of insect pests, insect – host plant interactions, activity and abundance of natural enemies, and efficacy ...
Is rainfed agriculture really a pathway from poverty?
Agriculture’s potential to reduce poverty at household level is explored for rainfed crop production in
Africa and India. A literature survey of crop improvement and natural resource management interventions
demonstrates ...
Agronomic management options for sustaining chickpea yield under climate change scenario
The impact of future climate change on the chickpea productivity was studied using the sequence
analysis tool of DSSAT V 4.5 to simulate fallow-chickpea rotation at four locations viz Anantapur, Kurnool,
Kadapa and Prakasam ...
