Seed protein electrophoresis in plant genetics: Commemorating the pioneering contributions of Prof. Chittaranjan Kole and team to the foundation of plant proteomics. [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract Despite the rapid progress of proteomics in human and other model organisms, plant proteomics has advanced at a comparatively slower pace. This review aims to highlight the pioneering work on seed protein markers detected by employing gel electrophoresis primarily by a team of Indian scientists that paved the way for elucidation of ...

Inheritance of Pigeonpea Sterility Mosaic Disease Resistance in Pigeonpea [PDF]

The Plant Pathology Journal, 2014
A comprehensive study was conducted using PPSMV resistant (BSMR 736) and susceptible (ICP 8863) genotypes to develop a segregating population and understand the inheritance of PPSMV resistance. The observed segregation was comparable to 13 (susceptible): 3 (resistant).

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.

Effect of crop establishment practices on the performance of component cultivars under pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) - wheat (Triticum aestivum) cropping system in IGP

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2018
Pigeonpea–wheat rotation is emerging as a potential alternative to existing rice–wheat system of Indo–Gangetic plains because of many inherent constraints right from requirements of higher inputs to deterioration in soil health in the latter.
