Pigeonpea [PDF]

, 2013
Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millspaugh) is an important grain legume crop grown in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Though pigeonpea has a narrow genetic base, vast genetic resources are available for its genetic improvement. Evaluation of small subsets, such as core (10% of the whole collection) and mini-core collections (about 1% of ...

Tolerance to Simulated Pod‐Borer Herbivory Among Several Genotypes of Extra Short‐Duration Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan)

Legume Science
Pigeonpea is a major global legume crop that provides nutrition and income for some of the world's poorest people. Global pigeonpea yields are constrained due to damage from flower‐ and pod‐feeding lepidopteran pests, particularly Helicoverpa armigera ...

Pigeonpea [PDF]

, 2014
Pigeonpea was labeled as an orphan crop but is now a trendy and pacesetter, with ample genetic and genomic information becoming available in recent times. It is now possible to cross wild relatives not only from the Cajanus group placed in the secondary and tertiary gene pool but also the related genera placed in the quaternary gene pool.

Effects of pigeonpea plant population and row arrangement in sorghum/pigeonpea intercropping [PDF]

Field Crops Research, 1983
A sorghum/pigeonpea intercropping experiment carried out for 3 years on a deep Vertisol in India examined the response to five pigeonpea populations in a 150 cm bed and furrow system at three row arrangements per bed: (a) 1 row sorghum : 1 row pigeonpea : 1 row sorghum at 45 cm between rows (SPS); (b) 1 row sorghum : 2 rows pigeonpea : 1 row sorghum at

Influence of genotype, nodule position, and edaphic factors on microbial diversity and assembly of pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) root nodules in Indian soils [PDF]

Environmental Microbiome
Background Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) is an important legume crop in semi-arid regions with multiple uses. The microbial diversity within its root nodules in Indian soils remains poorly explored.

Multi-environment testing for G×E interactions and identification of high-yielding, stable, medium-duration pigeonpea genotypes employing AMMI, GGE biplot, and YREM analyses [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millspaugh] is a widely grown pulse with high seed protein content that contributes to food and nutritional security in the Indian subcontinent. The majority of pigeonpea varieties cultivated in India are of medium duration (

INSECT PESTS OF PIGEONPEA AND THEIR MANAGEMENT [PDF]

Annual Review of Entomology, 1999
▪ Abstract  Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) is an important crop in semi-arid tropical and subtropical farming systems, providing high quality vegetable protein, animal feed, and firewood. Insect pests feeding on flowers, pods, and seeds are the most important biotic constraint affecting pigeonpea yields. This review summarizes the biology and ecology of the

Sequencing Pigeonpea Genome [PDF]

, 2017
Availability of draft genome has brought quantum jump in pigeonpea status and facilitated to move it to the league of genomic resource rich crops. It is important to mention that pigeonpea became the first orphan and non-industrial grain legume in 2012 to have the draft genome sequence.

Mapping Fusarium wilt and sterility mosaic disease resistance-associated genomic regions and haplotype variants in pigeonpea [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology
Background The occurrence of fusarium wilt (FW) and sterility mosaic disease (SMD) in conducive conditions cause significant yield losses in pigeonpea. FW hampers the yield of pigeonpea world-wide due to sudden wilting of plants.
