Wild and Domestic Differences in Plant Development and Responses to Water Deficit in Cicer [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2020 There is growing interest in widening the genetic diversity of domestic crops using wild relatives to break linkage drag and/or introduce new adaptive traits, particularly in narrow crops such as chickpea.

Transcriptomic Analysis of Flowering Time Genes in Cultivated Chickpea and Wild Cicer. [PDF]
Int J Mol Sci, 2023 Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is a major grain legume and a good source of plant-based protein. However, comprehensive knowledge of flowering time control in Cicer is lacking. In this study, we acquire high-throughput transcriptome sequencing data and analyze changes in gene expression during floral transition in the early flowering cultivar ICCV 96029,

PLoS ONE, 2015 There is a debate concerning mono- or poly-phyletic origins of the Near Eastern crops. In parallel, some authors claim that domestication was not possible within the natural range of the wild progenitors due to wild alleles flow into the nascent crops ...

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 The wild Cicer species is well-known for having climate-resilient and productivity-enhancing traits of interest. Therefore, wide hybridization could be used as a realistic strategy for introgressing prospective traits from wild species into the ...

Exploitation of Wild Cicer reticulatum Germplasm for Resistance to Helicoverpa armigera [PDF]
Journal of Economic Entomology, 2005 In the absence of high levels of resistance to Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) in the cultivated germplasm of chickpea, we evaluated accessions of Cicer spp. mostly Cicer reticulatum Ladzinsky, for resistance to this important pest. Under multichoice conditions in the field, 10 accessions showed lower leaf damage and lower numbers of eggs, larvae, or ...

Genome Size and Seed Mass Analyses in Cicer arietinum (Chickpea) and Wild Cicer Species [PDF]
HortScience, 2015 The genome size of cultivated Cicer arietinum and 12 wild Cicer sp. including seven annual and five perennial species were analyzed using flow cytometry. A significant 2C genome size variation was observed among the Cicer

Cicer turcicum: A New Cicer Species and Its Potential to Improve Chickpea
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Genetic resources of the genus Cicer L. are not only limited when compared to other important food legumes and major cereal crops but also, they include several endemic species with endangered status based on the criteria of the International Union for ...
