Inheritance of Resistance to Blight in Pigeonpeas [PDF]
Plant Disease, 1982 Sources of resistance to isolate P2 of the fungus Phytophthora drechsleri f. sp. cajani have been identified in pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan). Observations on F1 and F2 progenies and on backcrosses of resistant and susceptible parents studied by use of the pot culture technique indicated that resistance is governed by a single dominant gene, which is ...

Characterization and Inheritance of Dwarfing Genes of Pigeonpea [PDF]
Crop Science, 1989 Pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] cultivars have excessive vegetative growth and are not amenable to efficient crop management practices such as foliar insecticide application and mechanized field production. This study was conducted at the ICRISAT Center in India to characterize three easily distinguishable dwarf pigeonpea phenotypes (D6, PD1 ...
