Dynamics of productivity in pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] in subtropical Australia

Agronomy Journal, Volume 116, Issue 6, Page 2827-2840, November/December 2024.
Abstract Pigeonpea productivity can be enhanced by optimally matching the physiology of genotypes to environmental conditions. Information on crop responses to the environment has been lacking for the short‐duration pigeonpea genotypes, which are being trialed to develop the Australian pigeonpea industry.

Intercropping Legumes Improves Long Term Productivity and Soil Carbon and Nitrogen Stocks in Sub‐Saharan Africa

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 38, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract Food, feed, and fiber production needs to increase to support demands of the growing population in Sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), while soil fertility continues to decline. Intercropping, the cultivation of two or more crop species on the same field, can provide yield benefits and is suggested to positively affect soil organic carbon (C) and ...

Delineation of loci governing an extra‐earliness trait in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) using the QTL‐Seq approach

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 22, Issue 10, Page 2932-2949, October 2024.
Summary Developing early maturing lentil has the potential to minimize yield losses, mainly during terminal drought. Whole‐genome resequencing (WGRS) based QTL‐seq identified the loci governing earliness in lentil. The genetic analysis for maturity duration provided a good fit to 3:1 segregation (F2), indicating earliness as a recessive trait.

Analysis of BAC-end sequences (BESs) and development of BES-SSR markers for genetic mapping and hybrid purity assessment in pigeonpea (Cajanus spp.)

BMC Plant Biology, 2011
Background Pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] is an important legume crop of rainfed agriculture. Despite of concerted research efforts directed to pigeonpea improvement, stagnated productivity of pigeonpea during last several decades may be ...

The Brine-Grading of Pigeonpeas

The Journal of Agriculture of the University of Puerto Rico, 1963
The possibility of using brine-grading to improve the quality of canned pigeonpeas by separating the overmature yellow from the more tender green pigeonpeas was investigated. The results obtained show that brine-grading separated pigeonpeas into two groups, floaters and sinkers, the floaters being less developed than the sinkers, which were the more ...

Pigeonpea intercropping with some cereals and legumes in the plateau area of Eastern India

Annals of Tropical Research, 1998
Field experiments were conducted during the rainy seasons of 1992-93 and 1993-94 at the agricultural experimental farm, Giridih, Bihar to evaluate the intercropping system of pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan L.) with cereals such as maize (Zea mays L.) and rice

Variability of Emaravirus Species Associated with Sterility Mosaic Disease of Pigeonpea in India Provides Evidence of Segment Reassortment

Viruses, 2017
Sterility mosaic disease (SMD) of pigeonpea is a serious constraint for cultivation of pigeonpea in India and other South Asian countries. SMD of pigeonpea is associated with two distinct emaraviruses, Pigeonpea sterility mosaic virus 1 (PPSMV-1) and ...
