Registration of ‘ICPL 151’ Pigeonpea [PDF]

Crop Science, 1994
Developed by pedigree selection from the cross ICPX74092 (ICP6997/Prabhat), this early maturing short-statured Cajanus cajan variety (PI564587) produced 10% greater yields over 5 years of testing than control variety UPAS120 in the North West Hills Zone and 54% greater yields in the Central Zone of India.

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]

, 2013
Pigeonpea ( Cajanus cajan L.) is the sixth most important grain legume in the world and second most important pulse crop after chickpea in India. It is a major source of protein for several resource poor rural and urban families of Asia, Africa, the Caribbean, and Latin America and can be cultivated successfully under limited inputs as well as rainfed ...

Inheritance of photo-sensitivity in pigeonpea [PDF]

Indian Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding (The), 2021
Pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] is a short-day legume species and the late maturing genotypes are more photosensitive than early types. To generate information about the inheritance of photo-sensitivity, this study was conducted under natural and artificially extended (16 h) photo-periods using F1, F2 and BC1F1 generations.

Pigeonpea Nutrition and Its Improvement [PDF]

Journal of Crop Production, 2002
Abstract Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan [L.] Millsp.), known by several vernacular and trade names such as red gram, tuar, Angola pea, Congo pea, yellow dhal and oil dhal, is one of the major grain legume crops of the tropics and sub-tropics. It is a favorite crop of small holder dryland farmers because it can grow well under subsistence level of agriculture

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

Exploring the multifaceted dynamics of flowering time regulation in field crops: Insight and intervention approaches. [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract The flowering time (FTi) plays a critical role in the reproductive success and yield of various crop species by directly impacting both the quality and quantity of grain yield. Achieving optimal FTi is crucial for maximizing reproductive success and ensuring overall agricultural productivity.

Effects of improved pigeonpea fallows on biological and physical soil properties and their relationship with maize yield

Agroforestry Systems, 2021
Declining soil properties have triggered lower maize yields among smallholder famers in South Africa. Legume trees such as pigeonpea can be used as improved fallows to replenish degraded soils. The objectives of the study were to: (1) examine the effects

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

Farm‐scale assessment of maize–pigeonpea productivity in Northern Tanzania

Nutrient Cycling in Agroecosystems, 2021
Little is known about productivity of smallholder maize–pigeonpea intercropping systems in sub-Saharan Africa. We conducted a survey of 277 farm households in Northern Tanzania to assess socio-economic factors, field management characteristics, and their
