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 ...
Combining Ascochyta blight and Botrytis grey mould resistance in chickpea through interspecific hybridization
Ascochyta blight (AB) caused by Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Labr. and Botrytis grey mould (BGM) caused
by Botrytis cinerea (Pers. ex Fr.) are important diseases of the aerial plant parts of chickpea in most chickpea growing
areas ...
Resequencing of 429 chickpea accessions from 45 countries provides insights into genome diversity, domestication and agronomic traits
We report a map of 4.97 million single-nucleotide polymorphisms of the chickpea from whole-genome resequencing of 429 lines sampled from 45 countries. We identified 122 candidate regions with 204 genes under selection ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...

India-Morocco Initiative celebrates Pulse Feast Day in Rabat
The India-Morocco South-South Initiative kicked off celebrations for the 2016 International Year of Pulses (IYP) with a highspirited
meticulously organized feast in Rabat on Pulse Feast Day on January 6, 2016. The event ...
Genetic analysis for seed size in three crosses of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
Seed size (determined by 100-seed weight) is an
important component of trade and yield in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). The present investigation was undertaken to
study the possibility of maternal inheritance for seed ...
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 ...
