Influence of drought and heat stress, applied independently or in combination during seed development, on qualitative and quantitative aspects of seeds of lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) genotypes, differing in drought sensitivity
Terminal droughts, along with high temperatures, are becoming more frequent to strongly influence the seed development in cool‐season pulses like lentil. In the present study, the lentil plants growing outdoors under natural ...
Genetic imprints of domestication for disease resistance, oil quality, and yield component traits in groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.)
Ploidy difference between wild Arachis species and cultivated genotypes hinder transfer of useful alleles for agronomically important traits. To overcome this genetic barrier, two synthetic tetraploids, viz., ISATGR 1212 ...
Identification of phosphorus use efficient germplasm in lentil, chickpea and pigeonpea
The project will engage in the characterization of germplasm for phosphorous uptake and utilization efficiency traits, and mapping genes/QTLs for phosphorous uptake and utilization efficiency traits using association mapping.
Multi-locations testing (MLT) Network of GLDC crops in India to enhance genetic gains
Multi-location testing (MLT) Network is proposed to generate data for line advancements, parental selection and hot spot screenig for biotic and abiotic stresses. MLT data driven line advancements and hot spot screenign ...
Genetic dissection of grain iron and zinc concentrations in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.)
Iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) deficiencies are wide spread in South Asia and Africa. Biofortification of food crops is a viable means of addressing micronutrient deficiencies. Lentil is an important pulse crop that provides ...
