Genetic Variability of Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) for Water Logging and Salinity Tolerance under in vitro and in vivo Conditions
Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) genotypes acquired from diverse sources, were screened for water logging and salinity tolerance under laboratory and field conditions. Analysis of variance revealed significant ...
Monitoring biosafety of pharmaceutical drugs, insecticides, and other bioactive molecules to mitochondria
Mitochondria are large cell organelles in plant and animal cells. They convert chemical energy from food in the cell to usable energy
using oxygen. This process is called oxidative phosphorylation, which takes place inside ...
Effect of integrated agronomic practices on hybrids and pure-line varieties under different environmental conditions in pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millspaugh]
The field experiment was conducted at two locations during kharif 2011 and 2012 at Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi
Vidyapeeth (VNMKV), Parbhani, Maharashtra and International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid ...
Genomic resources for pigeonpea
Pigeonpea is increasingly playing a critical role in the lives of many farmers in the semiarid
tropics, where it is grown for both
subsistence and commercial use. The recent availability of genomic resources opened a new ...
Genotype x environment interaction and stability analysis in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.)
Genotype x environment interaction was evaluated under eight environments during lentil growing season of 2013/14 and 2014/15 for grain yield and their component characters of twenty one promising genotypes selected from ...
Transcriptome analyses reveal genotype- and developmental stage-specific molecular responses to drought and salinity stresses in chickpea
Drought and salinity are the major factors that limit chickpea production worldwide. We performed
whole transcriptome analyses of chickpea genotypes to investigate the molecular basis of drought
and salinity stress ...
Enhancing the value of genetic resources for use in pigeonpea improvement
The ICRISAT genebank
conserves over 13,700 accessions of
pigeonpea from 74 countries. The collection
serves as insurance against genetic erosion
and provides rich source of diversity for crop
improvement. Pigeonpea ...
Development of a panel of unigene derived polymorphic EST-SSR markers in lentil using public database information
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.), a diploid (2n = 14) with a genome size greater than 4000 Mbp, is an important cool season food legume grown worldwide. The availability of genomic resources is limited in this crop species. ...
Genotype X Environment Interactions for Oil Content in Peanut and Stable High-Oil-Yielding Sources
Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) genotypes with superior and stable agronomic performance and high oil content were identified from testing of 160 advanced breeding lines over six seasons. The study revealed significant genotype ...
Identification of new sources of resistance to Striga gesnerioides in cowpea Vigna unguiculata accessions
The parasitic weed, Striga gesnerioides, is a major threat to cowpea productivity throughout the savannas of West and Central Africa. The
identification of sources of S. gesnerioides resistance and their incorporation in ...
