The NBeG47 Chickpea Variety, Mechanical Harvesting, and Gender in Rural India
With a growing population of over 1.3 billion people, India will need to intensify agricultural production to meet growing nutritional demands; it is particularly important to increase the productivity of pulse crops, which ...
Role of sexual reproduction in the aggressiveness of Didymella rabiei affecting chickpea
Chickpea production is affected by Ascochyta blight disease in many countries and popular cultivars are put out of production due to the evolution of highly aggressive pathogen population. Sexual reproduction is believed ...
Viral diseases causing yellowing and stunting affecting cool season food legumes in Syria and the neighboring countries and their management
Viruses causing yellowing/stunting are the most important virus diseases affecting legumes in many regions of the world including Syria, and was considered for many years to be caused mainly by infection with Bean leafroll ...
Potential and limits of exploitation of crop wild relatives for pea, lentil, and chickpea improvement
Legumes represent the second most important family of crop plants after grasses, accounting for approximately 27% of the world's crop production. Past domestication processes resulted in a high degree of relatedness between ...
Identification of stable drought tolerant landraces of chickpea (Cicer arietinum) under multiple environments
Drought is a major constraint to chickpea production leading to maximum crop loss. Further the narrow genetic base of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) can be widened by crossing them to landraces and wild species of which ...
First report of Cotton leafroll dwarf virus affecting chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) in Uzbekistan
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.; family Fabaceae) plants with symptoms typical of virus infection (chlorosis, stunting, necrosis, yellowing, and reddening) were collected during disease surveys in June 2012 (386 samples from ...
Capacity Strengthening efforts for better technology generation, promotion and dissemination of food-feed traits of chickpea
Participatory varietal selection of chickpea varieties for food-feed traits was undertaken during a field day held on December 23, 2019 at Adadi Bole Kebele in Chefe Donsa. Chefe Donsa is the administrative center of ...
Association mapping of nutritional quality traits (protein, iron and zinc) in chickpea
The present study was designed to develop micronutrient-dense chickpea lines, by evaluating the genetic variability and identifying marker trait association for grain protein, Fe and Zn contents. The experiment was conducted ...
CRP-GLDC FP4 2019 Varieties Released
This table presents the varieties developed and released by the CRP-GLDC in 2019 by ICRISAT.
Developing an artificial inoculation technique for screening chickpea genotypes against a Syrian isolate of Chickpea chlorotic stunt virus
Chickpea chlorotic stunt virus (CpCSV) is the most important virus affecting chickpea crop in several countries of West Asia and North Africa (WANA), including Syria. The main objective of this study was to develop a ...
