Evaluation of pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) genotypes against pigeonpea sterility mosaic disease
Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2019 Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) is a drought-resistant pulse crop cultivated in the semi-arid regions of the world. Sterility mosaic disease (SMD) also known as “green plague of pigeonpea” is one of the severe threats in pigeonpea production causing severe yield loss.

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

Gene Editing and Transformation Strategies for Engineering Drought‐Tolerant Legumes
Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 1, March 2026.ABSTRACT Legumes play a vital role in agriculture, nutrition, and the economy, but their production faces significant threats. Among these, drought and its unpredictability will be the most damaging constraint in the coming decades. Enhancing drought tolerance is essential for resilient and sustainable legume cultivation, and genetic engineering ...

Linking the ICRISAT Genebank to Poverty Reduction and Welfare in Malawi
Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, Volume 70, Issue 1, Page 165-177, January 2026.ABSTRACT Genebanks contribute to the development of improved crop varieties through the conservation and supply of diverse germplasm for use in agricultural research by scientists, such as plant breeders. Tracing their contribution to the welfare and poverty impacts of improved varieties on smallholder farmers presents multiple challenges, as the ...
