TL;DR: Nine QTL clusters containing QTLs for several drought tolerance traits have been identified that can be targeted for molecular breeding and one cluster present on CaLG04 has a high potential to enhance drought tolerance in chickpea improvement.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This study provides significant MTAs for drought andHeat tolerance in chickpea that can be used, after validation, in molecular breeding for developing superior varieties with enhanced drought and heat tolerance.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comprehensive resource of drought- and salinity- responsive ESTs for gene discovery and marker development in chickpea ( Cicer arietinum L.)
Rajeev K. Varshney,Pavana J Hiremath,Pazhamala Lekha,Junichi Kashiwagi,Junichi Kashiwagi,Jayashree Balaji,Amit Deokar,Vincent Vadez,Yongli Xiao,Ramamurthy Srinivasan,Pooran M. Gaur,Kadambot H. M. Siddique,Christopher D. Town,David A. Hoisington +13 more
TL;DR: Generated set of chickpea ESTs serves as a resource of high quality transcripts for gene discovery and development of functional markers associated with abiotic stress tolerance that will be helpful to facilitate chick pea breeding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fast-track introgression of "QTL-hotspot" for root traits and other drought tolerance traits in JG 11, an elite and leading variety of chickpea
Rajeev K. Varshney,Rajeev K. Varshney,Pooran M. Gaur,Siva K. Chamarthi,L. Krishnamurthy,Shailesh Tripathi,Junichi Kashiwagi,Srinivasan Samineni,Vikas K. Singh,Mahendar Thudi,Deepa Jaganathan +10 more
TL;DR: A “QTL‐hotspot” containing quantitative trait loci (QTL) for several root and drought tolerance traits was transferred through marker‐assisted backcrossing into JG 11, a leading variety of chickpea in India from the donor parent ICC 4958.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sources of tolerance to terminal drought in the chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) minicore germplasm
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the minicore (n = 211) chickpea germplasm collection over three years for drought tolerance index (DTI), calculated as the standard residuals, through a regression approach considering drought yield as a function of days to flowering, yield potential and the residual or drought response, in the short season environment of South-India.
