(World Bank, 2009), languages, cultures, institutions and histories (Hopkins, 2009)
and farming systems (Giller et al., 2011b; Tittonell et al., ...
Multiple post-domestication origins of kabuli chickpea through allelic variation in a diversification-associated transcription factor
Crop domestication and subsequent diversification represent adaptations to humanbuilt
environments and offer insights into the
evolutionary forces that shape phenotypic diversity. Chickpea (Cicer arietinum), a widely ...
Genetic options for combating biotic stresses in cool-season food legumes
Cool-season food legumes, mainly faba bean (Vicia faba), chickpea (Cicer arietinum), field pea (Pisum sativum), lentil (Lens culinaris) and grass pea (Lathyrus sativus), are economically and ecologically important crops ...
