Modeling the soil-water-crop-atmosphere system to improve crop and water productivity in Stage II of Indira Gandhi Canal Command Area
The study entitled “Modelling the Soil-Water-Crop-Atmosphere System to Improve Land and Water Productivity in Stage II of IGNP” was carried out at village Amarpura (Bajju), Bikaner, Rajasthan, during 'kharif' and 'rabi' ...
QTL‐seq for rapid identification of candidate genes for 100‐seed weight and root/total plant dry weight ratio under rainfed conditions in chickpea
Terminal drought is a major constraint to chickpea productivity. Two component traits
responsible for reduction in yield under drought stress include reduction in seeds size and root
length/root density. QTL-seq approach, ...
Improving biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) capacity and productivity of kabuli chickpea (Cicer kabulinum L.) varieties by molybdenum and PSB applications
The experiment entitled “Improving biological nitrogen fixation (BNF)
capacity and productivity of kabuli chickpea (Cicer kabulinum L.) varieties by
PSB and molybdenum applications” was executed during rabi 2015-16 at ...
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 ...
Temperature sensitivity of food legumes: a physiological insight
Of the various environmental stresses that a
plant can experience, temperature has the widest and most
far-reaching effects on legumes. Temperature extremes,
both high (heat stress) and low (cold stress), are injurious ...
Purification of secondary metabolites from 2 actinomycetes responsible for antagonistic activity against important fungal pathogens of chickpea and sorghum
In our previous study, a total of 137 actinomycetes, isolated from 25 different herbal vermi-composts, were characterized for their antagonistic potential against Macrophomina phaseolina (causes charcoal rot in sorghum and ...
Management of chickpea pod borer Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner): use of biopesticides
Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) is one of the most important insect pests worldwide. The larva feeds on
various important crops such as Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), tomato (Solanum lycopersicum. L),
chickpea (Cicer arietinum) ...
Genome-wide development and deployment of informative intron-spanning and intron-length polymorphism markers for genomics-assisted breeding applications in chickpea
The discovery and large-scale genotyping of informative gene-based markers is essential for rapid delineation
of genes/QTLs governing stress tolerance and yield component traits in order to drive genetic
enhancement in ...
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 ...
Plant growth‑promotion and biofortification of chickpea and pigeonpea through inoculation of biocontrol potential bacteria, isolated from organic soils
Seven strains of bacteria [Pseudomonas plecoglossicida SRI-156, Brevibacterium antiquum SRI-158, Bacillus altitudinis
SRI-178, Enterobacter ludwigii SRI-211, E. ludwigii SRI-229, Acinetobacter tandoii SRI-305 and Pseudomonas ...
