Globally, chickpea production is severely affected by salinity stress. Understanding the genetic basis for tolerance important to develop tolerant chickpeas. A recombinant inbred line (RIL) population developed using parental lines ICCV 10 (salt-tolerant) and DCP 92-3 (salt-sensitive) was screened under field conditions collect information on agronomy, yield components, stress indices. Genotyping data generated Axiom®CicerSNP array used construct a linkage map comprising 1856 SNP markers...
Salinity is a major abiotic stress that global threat to crop production, including chickpea. This study focused on understanding the complex molecular mechanisms underlying salinity tolerance using comparative transcriptome analysis of tolerant (ICCV 10, JG 11) and sensitive (DCP 92-3, Pusa 256) chickpea genotypes in control salt-stressed environments. A total 530 million reads were generated from root samples four Illumina HiSeq-2500. 21,698 differentially expressed genes (DEGs)...
Abstract LncRNAs (long noncoding RNAs) are 200 bp length crucial RNA molecules, lacking coding potential and having important roles in regulating gene expression, particularly response to abiotic stresses. In this study, we identified salt stress-induced lncRNAs chickpea roots predicted their intricate regulatory roles. A total of 3452 novel were be distributed across all 08 chromosomes. On comparing salt-tolerant (ICCV 10, JG 11) salt-sensitive cultivars (DCP 92–3, Pusa 256), 4446...
Chickpea, being an important grain legume crop, is often confronted with the adverse effects of high temperatures at reproductive stage crop growth, drastically affecting yield and overall productivity. The current study deals extensive evaluation chickpea genotypes, focusing on traits associated their response to heat stress. Notably, we observed significant variations for these under both normal high-temperature conditions, forming a robust basis genetic research breeding initiatives....
The fishmeal is boon for aquaculture production in this recent pollution and climate change era. However, the demand of enhancing many folds which needs to find alternative cheap price. present investigation addresses these issues with quinoa husk (QH). An experiment was performed evaluate replacement by QH different proportionate at 0, 15, 20, 25, 30 35%. study designed 12 treatments as control, stressors group (concurrent exposed ammonia, arsenic high temperature stress, NH3+As+T), fed 35%...
In aquatic ecosystems, metal and ammonia pollution pose major concern as they contaminate the environment induces toxicity in fish. The present study addresses induced by chromium (Cr) (NH3) fish investigates potential of dietary curcumin mitigating effects concurrent exposure to theses stressors Pangasianodon hypophthalmus. Three isonitrogenous isocaloric diets were formulated: a control diet (0% curcumin) two curcumin-supplemented containing 0.1% 0.2% curcumin. Four experimental groups...
Premna serratifolia is used by the traditional practitioners as cardiotonic, antibiotic, anti-coagulant, stomachic, carminative, hepatoprotective, antitumor etc. The present study aims in evaluation of hepatoprotective and in-vitro cytotoxic activity alcoholic extract leaves Linn. Hepatoprotective studied carbon tetrachloride induced hepato-toxicity rats carried out tryphane blue exclusion method using EAC cell lines. degree protection has been measured biochemical parameters such serum...
Continuous cropping and frequent soil cultivation contribute to the breakdown of aggregates removal organic matter, which reduces fertility production. Green manuring is a low-cost efficient approach for reducing expense inorganic fertilizers preserving fertility. Due mounting problems facing agriculture, including climate change, extreme weather events, deterioration, land contamination as result overuse chemical fertilizers, many farmers are adding green into their methods prevent erosion,...
Identifying a congenially targeted production environment and understanding the effects of genotype by environmental interactions on adaption chickpea genotypes is essential for achieving an optimal yield stability. Different models like additive main effect multiplicative (AMMI 1, AMM2), weighted average absolute scores BLUPs (WAASB), plus genotype-environment (GGE) were used to understand their suitability in precise estimation variance interaction. Our experiment that represent West...
After drought salinity is the major abiotic stress that severely affects agricultural productivity globally. Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) important grain legume which suffers approximately 8-10% of total global yield loss due to salinity. Screening for salt difficult and traits correlate tolerance are least understood. The present study was carried out at ICAR-IARI, New Delhi 2017-18, deals with morphological physiological like RWC (Relative water content), EL (Electrolyte Leakage), Na/K...
Abstract Soil salinization drastically affects crop growth, development and yield. In order to tackle salinity, knowledge about stress tolerance mechanism is important expedite the of salt‐tolerant cultivars. this study, 20 oat genotypes consisting 11 cultivated nine wild Avena species were evaluated at different levels salinity with 1:1 NaCl Na 2 SO 4 salts mixtures under hydroponics pot experimental set‐up. Drastic reduction was observed in chlorophyll, relative water K + /Na contents,...
Chickpea is recognized as most nutritious pulse crop and with respect to acreage, it ranks at the top among pulses in India.Realizing significance of plant genetic resources, special efforts were made by National Bureau Plant Genetic Resources (NBPGR) collect chickpea germplasm from different states India including certain useful introductions other countries.A large number accessions wild species characterized evaluated for various agro-morphological traits using minimal descriptor.Thus,...
Context Under natural field conditions, plants confront the co-occurrence of stresses. A comprehensive insight into combined-stress tolerance is requisite to developing stress resilience in cultivars oats (Avena sativa L.) for saline–alkaline soil. Aims This study was undertaken characterise diverse oat genotypes seedling growth attributes under two saline and alkaline concentrations combined conditions. Methods We screened 105 accessions genus Avena with following treatments: control,...
The co-occurrence of salinisation and alkalisation is quite frequent in problematic soils poses an immediate threat to food, feed nutritional security. In the present study, root system architectural traits (RSAs) ion profiling were evaluated 21 genotypes Avena species understand effect salinity-alkalinity stress. oat grown on germination paper 5-day-old seedlings transferred a hydroponic for up 30days. These subjected seven treatments: T0 , treatment control (Hoagland solution); T1 moderate...
An association mapping panel consisting of 380 genotypes chickpea was evaluated for three different years, including 2014–2015, 2015–2016 and 2016–2017, yield-contributing parameters, the seed number weight. The AMMI analysis presented mainly concentrated on weight number, which are two most important traits. contributed 93.08% total variance, while interaction effect comparatively low, with 4.1% biplot identified IG5986, IG5982, ILC6025 ICCV14307 as desirable IG5893, ILC6891 IG5856 number....
Fusarium wilt, caused by oxysporum f. sp. ciceris (Padwick) Matuo and K. Sato is a major cause for low productivity of chickpea. Presence multiple pathogenic races makes it difficult the breeder to screen wilt resistance. Twenty-two chickpea genotypes were grown in Hoagland solution inoculated with five different F. two isolates each race), including host pathogens from growing region India.
