QTL identifcation for Ascochyta blight resistance and its application in chickpea breeding
Ascochyta blight (AB), caused by Didymella rabiei regularly occurs in epidemic
form causing heavy yield and quality losses, and thus is a major biotic constraint to
chickpea production, particularly in the cool and wet ...
Genetic diversity of microsatellite alleles located at quantitative resistance loci for Ascochyta blight resistance in a global collection of chickpea germplasm
A global collection of 43 chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) genotypes, resistant and susceptible to Ascochyta
blight caused by Ascochyta rabiei was evaluated for the disease under controlled conditions. In this study three
known ...
Combining Ascochyta blight and Botrytis grey mould resistance in chickpea through interspecific hybridization
Ascochyta blight (AB) caused by Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Labr. and Botrytis grey mould (BGM) caused
by Botrytis cinerea (Pers. ex Fr.) are important diseases of the aerial plant parts of chickpea in most chickpea growing
areas ...
Screening of kabuli chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) germplasm resistant to Botrytis Gray Mold in Bangladesh
An experiment was carried out at the Pulse Research Sub-Station (PRSS), Madaripur, Bangladesh during three subsequent years of 2008-2009, 2009-2010 and 2010-2011 to screen out the suitable high yielding chickpea varieties ...
Disease Resistance in Chickpea
Chickpea is a grain legume with valuable nutritional characteristics. It is a basic aliment in Asian countries such as India and Pakistan as well as a traditional ingredient in Mediterranean diets. Biotic stresses such as ...
Multi-environment QTL analyses for drought-related traits in a recombinant inbred population of chickpea (Cicer arientinum L.)
A recombinant inbred line (RIL) population, comprising 181 lines derived from ILC588 × ILC3279, was evaluated in 10 environments across three locations with different moisture gradients. A drought resistance score (DRS) ...
Status and prospects of food legumes improvement in Morocco
In Morocco, faba bean, chickpea and lentil are being grown under rainfed
conditions and play an important role in cereal-based cropping systems. Food
legumes improve soil fertility through biological nitrogen fixation and ...
North-Africa-ICARDA Partnership on Food Legumes Research for Development: Present Status and Future Strategy
Food legumes are important crops for human food,
animal feed and services for sustainable agriculture.
They are the rich sources of protein and micronutrients,
thus contributing significantly to the health and
nutritional ...
