Endogenous Hormone Variations in Annual Wild Cicer Species

Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution, 2006
All processes that regulate of growth, differentiation and development and also stomatal movement are influenced by endogenous hormones in plants. Research related with endogenous hormones is known for cultivated chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), while in wild chickpeas no data existed. In this study, C. bijugum K.H. Rech.; C. chorassanicum (Bge) M. Pop.;

Interspecific hybridization in wild Cicer sp.

Plant Breeding, 2011
With 2 figures and 5 tables AbstractInterspecific hybridization between closely related wild Cicer species was performed. The Cicer judaicum × C. pinnatifidum cross resulted in sterile F1’s because of abnormal flowers. Backcrossing the F1 plant with C. pinnatifidum pollen resulted in mostly sterile BC1F1 plants.

Evaluation of perennial wild Cicer species for drought resistance

Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution, 2007
About 90% of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) in the world is grown under rainfed conditions where drought is one of the major constraints limiting its productivity. Unlike the cultivated chickpea, wild Cicer species possesses sources of resistance to multiple stresses; we therefore evaluated perennial wild Cicer species for resistance to drought.

An efficient protocol for in vitro propagation of the wild legume Cicer microphyllum Benth., a crop wild relative of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)

In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology - Plant, 2019
Cicer microphyllum Benth. is a wild legume that is adapted to the extremely adverse climatic conditions of the cold Himalayan deserts. This rare species is a crop wild relative (CWR) that could be used for chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) breeding programs to improve abiotic stress tolerance. However, the availability of C.

Allelic diversity between and within three wild annual Cicer species

Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution, 2014
Most wild Cicer species have narrow eco-geographic amplitude. Likewise, domesticated chickpea suffers from severe adaptive limitations due to its unique evolutionary history. The wild progenitor may offer only limited adaptive allelic variation for improving the chickpea crop.

Exploitation of wild Cicer species for yield improvement in chickpea

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1997
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) ranks third in the world, and first in the Mediterranean basin, for production among pulses. Despite its importance as a crop and considerable research effort, traditional breeding methods have so far been unable to produce cultivars with a large impact on chickpea production.

RAPD and ISSR fingerprinting in cultivated chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) and its wild progenitor Cicer reticulatum Ladizinsky

Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution, 2006
Detection of genetic relationships between 19 chickpea cultivars and five accessions of its wild progenitor Cicer reticulatum Ladizinsky were investigated by using RAPD and ISSR markers. On an average, six bands per primer were observed in RAPD analysis and 11 bands per primer in ISSR analysis.
