Around 2 billion people are suffering from chronic malnutrition or “hidden hunger”, which is the result of many diseases and disorders, including cognitive degeneration, stunting growth, mortality. Thus, biofortification staple food crops enriched with micronutrients a more sustainable option for providing nutritional supplements managing in society. Since 2001, when concept came to light, different research activities have been carried out, like development target populations, breeding...
Abstract With an aim of enhancing drought tolerance using a marker‐assisted backcrossing (MABC) approach, we introgressed the “ QTL‐hotspot ” region from ICC 4958 accession that harbors quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for several drought‐tolerance related traits into three elite Indian chickpea ( Cicer arietinum L.) cultivars: Pusa 372, 362, and DCP 92‐3. Of eight simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers in region, two to polymorphic were used foreground selection with respective...
Various faulty farming practices and low-performance cultivars selection are reducing crop yields, factor productivity, soil fertility. Therefore, there is an urgent need to achieve better nutrient dynamics sustainable production by selecting more nutrient-responsive using efficient management. The present experiment aimed enhance seed quality, efficiency, through management under different lentil cultivars. was laid out in a split-plot design, assigning three (viz. Sapna, Garima, HM-1) the...
The development of resistant maize cultivars is the most effective and sustainable approach to combat fungal diseases. Over last three decades, many quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping studies reported numerous QTL for disease resistance (FDR) in maize. However, different genetic backgrounds germplasm differing analysis algorithms limit use identified comparative studies. meta-QTL (MQTL) meta-analysis multiple experiments, which entails broader allelic coverage helps combined diverse...
Abstract Viral diseases substantially impact global maize production. Genetic resistance is the most feasible approach to combat losses caused by viral diseases. Various researchers have mapped several QTLs for disease (VDR) in maize. The meta-QTL (MQTL) analysis best way leverage such independent studies find overlapping or common genomic regions governing target traits. Towards this direction, present study, MQTL was carried out using a total of 39 QTL mapping investigations on against 14...
Abstract Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] (2n=40), an important source of the premium quality protein (40%) and oil (18-20%), suffers from poor viability seeds during ambient storage. The current study aimed to understand genetic control seed in soybean its association with other traits through accelerated ageing test. A set 119 F2:3 a cross between good storing genotype EC1023 (91.87% germination after 1 year storage) poor-storing VLS61 (60.87% were tested for vigour (AA) parameters AA...
