Identification of novel sources of resistance to ascochyta blight in a collection of wild Cicer accessions. [PDF]
Chickpea production is constrained worldwide by the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Ascochyta rabiei, the causal agent of ascochyta blight (AB). In order to reduce the impact of this disease, novel sources of resistance are required in chickpea cultivars ...

iPBS-Retrotransposons-based genetic diversity and relationship among wild annual Cicer species [PDF]
Lack of requisite genetic variation in cultivated species has necessitated systematic collection, documentation and evaluation of wild Cicer species for use in chickpea variety improvement programs.

Evaluation and identification of advanced inter-specific derivatives from crosses of Cicer arietinum with C. reticulatum and C. echinospermum for agro-morphological, quality traits and disease resistance [PDF]
Inter-specific hybridization is a key strategy in modern crop improvement, aiming to integrate desirable traits from wild species into cultivated backgrounds. This study delves into the evaluation and identification of advanced inter-specific derivatives

Australian and international chickpea (Cicer arietinum) cultivars and germplasm accessions, and wild annual Cicer spp. in the primary and secondary gene pools, were assessed in glasshouse experiments for levels of resistance to the root-lesion nematodes ...

The field study was conducted on six wild chickpea accessions to evaluate the influence of agroclimatic indices viz., accumulated growing degree days (GDD), photo-thermal unit (PTU) and heliothermal unit (PTU) at various phenophases of chickpea under ...

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 ...

In many acidic soils, high concentrations of toxic Al3+ hamper plant growth by restricting root growth which in turn restricts water and nutrient absorption. Previous research showed variation among chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) and wild Cicer species in

Cross compatibility between chickpea and its wild relative, Cicer echinospermum Davis [PDF]
Cicer echinospermum, a wild relative of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), has traits that can be used to improve the cultivated species. It is possible to obtain successful crosses between the two species, even though their cross progenies have reduced ...

Sources of resistance to ascochyta blight in wild cicer species [PDF]
An evaluation was made in field and greenhouse tests performed during 1988-91 of the resistance of 201 accessions of 8 annual wild Cicer spp. to Ascochyta rabiei, the cause of the major foliar disease of chickpea. Four accessions of C.
