Gene expression and yeast two-hybrid studies of transcription factors mediating drought stress response in root tissues of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Drought stress has been one of the serious constraints affecting chickpea productivity to a great extent. Genomic assisted breeding in chickpea has been effective in providing a yield advantage of up to 24 %, thus having a potential to accelerate ...

Improving Drought-Avoidance Root Traits in Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) -Current Status of Research at ICRISAT

Plant Production Science, 2008
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), an important food legume grown in the semi-arid tropical and Mediterranean regions, suffers substantial yield loss due to drought at the end of the growing season (terminal drought), as the crop is largely grown rainfed in ...

Genome-wide association study and expression of candidate genes for Fe and Zn concentration in sorghum grains

Scientific Reports
Sorghum germplasm showed grain Fe and Zn genetic variability, but a few varieties were biofortified with these minerals. This work contributes to narrowing this gap.

Pangenome-wide insights into eukaryotic translation initiation factors (eIF) genes uncover targets for sterility mosaic disease resistance engineering in pigeonpea

BMC Plant Biology
Sterility mosaic disease (SMD) poses a significant threat to pigeonpea production. Although resistant cultivars are widely used, the rapid evolution of viral pathogens often renders host resistance ineffective.
