A Brief Report of the International Chickpea Varietal Trials (ICVTs) 2018/19
In India, ICAR and ICRISAT work as a team for chickpea improvement research and this collaboration has been highly effective in developing improved chickpea cultivars. The chickpea breeding materials supplied by ICRISAT ...
Morpho-Physiological Parameters Associated with Iron Deficiency Chlorosis Resistance and Their Effect on Yield and Its Related Traits in Groundnut
Iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC) causes a significant reduction in yield of groundnut grown in calcareous and alkaline soils
in India. The main aim of the study was to assess genotypic differences for morpho-physiological ...

Quantitative trait loci from identification to exploitation for crop improvement
Rapid advances in the fields of genetics and genomics after the discovery of Mendel’s laws of inheritance have led to map many genes/QTL controlling qualitative and quantitative traits in plant species. Mapping of genomic ...
Genome-wide insertion–deletion (InDel) marker discovery and genotyping for genomics-assisted breeding applications in chickpea
We developed 21,499 genome-wide insertion–deletion (InDel) markers (2- to 54-bp in silico fragment length polymorphism) by comparing the genomic sequences of four (desi, kabuli and wild C. reticulatum) chickpea [Cicer ...
Boosting pearl millet productivity by crop density increases
The proposal builds on a few years of yield trials showing a positive response, genotype-dependent, to increasing sowing density on grain and stover productivity in pearl millet. These trials were conceived from the ...
The Evolution of Photoperiod-Insensitive Flowering in Sorghum, A Genomic Model for Panicoid Grasses
Of central importance in adapting plants of tropical origin to temperate cultivation has been selection of daylengthneutral
genotypes that flower early in the temperate summer and take full advantage of its long days. A ...
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 ...
Molecular cloning and characterization of drought stress responsive abscisic acid-stress-ripening (Asr1) gene from wild jujube, Ziziphus nummularia (Burm.f.) Wight & Arn
Drought is a calamitous abiotic stress hampering agricultural productivity all over the world and its severity is likely to increase further.
Abscisic acidstressripening
proteins (ASR), are a group of small hydrophilic ...
Development and Characterization of Recombinent Inbreed lines for Seed Related Traits in Chickpea
Seed traits are very important factors in improving yield and productivity of chickpea. However being
quantitative in nature, gains through direct selection for these traits particularly for bolder seed size with higher ...
