Pulses in Rice-fallows for improved resource use efficiency
Resource use efficiency, especially water resources have become a norm for sustainable and efficient agricultural production systems in the dry areas. While the productivity of few dominant crops has been a major driver ...
Characterization of the main chickpea cropping systems in India using a yield gap analysis approach
Chickpea is an important livelihood option and nutritious food source for many subsistence farming communities in the developing world. Although India is the biggest chickpea producing nation, the demands of its growing ...
Estimating the Potential Area Adoption of GLDC Crop Cultivars Released in 2018
The CGIAR Research Program on Grain Legumes and Dryland Cereals (CRP-GLDC) has set aspirational targets to contribute to System-Level Outcomes (SLOs) on reducing poverty, improving food and nutritional security for health ...
Harnessing food legumes for climate-smart agriculture
Food legumes are particularly suited to sustainable agriculture. ICARDA is developing and disseminating improved varieties and production technologies so farmers can benefit from the increasing demand for these climate-smart ...
Technology gap, constraint analysis and improved production technologies for yield enhancement of barley (Hordeum vulgare) and chickpea (Cicer arietinum) under arid conditions of Rajasthan
Agriculture is the mainstay of livelihood in arid region of Rajasthan and improvement in the agricultural productivity is one of the most important strategies to reduce poverty, ensuring food and livelihood security in the ...
Big jump towards no-till chickpea in the Kermanshah province of Iran
Chickpea is a valuable food crop at rainfed condition in Iran in rotation with wheat and it nutritional value makes it good source for protein and also carbohydrate, fiber, minerals and vitamins, of course it production ...

Identification of QTLs for resistance to Fusarium wilt and Ascochyta blight in a recombinant inbred population of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
Fusarium wilt (FW; caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris) and Ascochyta blight (AB; caused by Ascochyta rabiei) are two major biotic stresses that cause significant yield losses in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). In ...
Integrated transcriptome, small RNA and degradome sequencing approaches provide insights into Ascochyta blight resistance in chickpea
Ascochyta blight (AB) is one of the major biotic stresses known to limit the chickpea production worldwide. To dissect the complex mechanisms of AB resistance in chickpea, three approaches,namely, transcriptome, small RNA ...
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 ...
