Analysis of phenotypic data for 20 drought tolerance traits in 1-7 seasons at 1-5 locations together with genetic mapping two populations provided 9 QTL clusters which one present on CaLG04 has a high potential to enhance chickpea improvement. Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the second most important grain legume cultivated by resource poor farmers arid and semi-arid regions world. Drought major constraints leading up 50% production losses chickpea. In order dissect complex nature use...
To understand the genetic basis of tolerance to drought and heat stresses in chickpea, a comprehensive association mapping approach has been undertaken. Phenotypic data were generated on reference set (300 accessions, including 211 mini-core collection accessions) for related root traits, tolerance, yield component traits from 1-7 seasons 1-3 locations India (Patancheru, Kanpur, Bangalore) three Africa (Nairobi, Egerton Kenya Debre Zeit Ethiopia).

Abstract The adverse effects of mounting environmental challenges, including extreme temperatures, threaten the global food supply due to their impact on plant growth and productivity. Temperature extremes disrupt genetics, leading significant issues eventually damaging phenotypes. Plants have developed complex signaling networks respond tolerate temperature stimuli, genetic, physiological, biochemical, molecular adaptations. In recent decades, omics tools other strategies rapidly advanced,...
This study presents the development and mapping of simple sequence repeat (SSR) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers in chickpea. The population is based on an inter-specific cross between domesticated non-domesticated genotypes chickpea (Cicer arietinum ICC 4958 x C. reticulatum PI 489777). same has been focus previous studies, permitting integration new legacy genetic into a map. We report set 311 novel SSR (designated ICCM-ICRISAT microsatellite), obtained from SSR-enriched...
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the third most important cool season food legume, cultivated in arid and semi-arid regions of world.

Abstract Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most abundant DNA sequence variation in genomes which can be used to associate genotypic phenotype. Therefore, availability of a high-density SNP array with uniform genome coverage advance genetic studies and breeding applications. Here we report development ‘Axiom _Arachis ’ 58 K SNPs its utility groundnut diversity study. In this context, from total 163,782 derived resequencing RNA-sequencing 41 accessions wild diploid ancestors,...
Focus has centered on C-partitioning in stems of sugarcane (Saccharum sp.) due to their high-sucrose accumulation features, relevance other grasses, and rising economic value. Here we review how balances between sucrose storage, respiration, cell wall biosynthesis. The specific topics involve 1) exceptionally high levels (up over 500 mM), 2) a potential, turgor-sensitive system for partitioning storage inside (cytosol vacuole) outside cells, 3) mechanisms prevent back-flow extracellular...
Peanut (Arachis hypogaea; 2n = 4x 40) is a nutritious food and good source of vitamins, minerals, healthy fats. Expansion genetic genomic resources for enhancement cultivated peanut has gained momentum from the sequenced genomes diploid ancestors peanut. To facilitate high-throughput genotyping Arachis species, 20 genotypes were re-sequenced genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) selected to develop large-scale SNP array. For flexibility in applications, SNPs polymorphic between...
Abstract Contamination of crops with aflatoxin is a serious global threat to food safety. Aflatoxin production by Aspergillus flavus exacerbated drought stress in the field and oxidative vitro. We examined transcriptomes three toxigenic atoxigenic isolates A. conducive non-conducive media varying levels H 2 O investigate relationship secondary metabolite production, carbon source, stress. found that employ distinct mechanisms remediate damage, source affected isolates’ expression profiles....
The infection of maize and peanut with Aspergillus flavus subsequent contamination aflatoxin pose a threat to global food safety human health, is exacerbated by drought stress. Drought stress-responding compounds such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) are associated fungal stress responsive signaling secondary metabolite production, can stimulate the production A. in vitro. These metabolites have been shown possess diverse functions soil-borne fungi including antibiosis, competitive...
The colonization of maize (Zea mays L.) and peanut (Arachis hypogaea by the fungal pathogen Aspergillus flavus results in contamination kernels with carcinogenic mycotoxins known as aflatoxins leading to economic losses potential health threats humans. regulation aflatoxin biosynthesis various spp. has been extensively studied, shown be related oxidative stress responses. Given that environmental stresses such drought heat result accumulation reactive oxygen species (ROS) within host plant...
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) and other members of Saccharum spp. are attractive biofuel feedstocks. One the two World Collections Related Grasses (WCSRG) is in Miami, FL. This WCSRG has 1002 accessions, presumably with valuable alleles for biomass, important agronomic traits, stress resistance. However, not been fully exploited by breeders due to its lack characterization unmanageable population. In order optimize use this genetic resource, we aim 1) genotypically evaluate all accessions...
Chickpea is an important food legume crop for the semi-arid regions, however, its productivity adversely affected by various biotic and abiotic stresses. Identification of candidate genes associated with stress response will help breeding efforts aiming to enhance productivity. With this objective, 10 responsive were selected on basis prior knowledge complex trait. These subjected allele specific sequencing across a chickpea reference set comprising 300 genotypes including 211 accessions...
A mapping population of recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from TMV 2 and its mutant, 2-NLM was employed for important taxonomic productivity traits using genic non-genic transposable element markers in peanut. Single nucleotide polymorphism copy number variation RAD-Sequencing data indicated very limited between 2-NLM. But phenotypically they differed significantly many traits. Also, the RIL showed significant a few additional agronomic genetic linkage map 1,205.66 cM constructed 91...
