Marker-assisted backcrossing to introgress resistance to fusarium wilt race 1 and ascochyta blight in C 214, an elite cultivar of chickpea

TL;DR: Two parallel marker‐assisted backcrossing programs by targeting foc1 locus and two quantitative trait loci regions, ABQTL‐I and ABQ TL‐II, were undertaken to introgress resistance to FW and AB, respectively, in C 214, an elite cultivar of chickpea.
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

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

Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata): Genetics, genomics and breeding

TL;DR: A review of the genetics, genomics and breeding of cowpea is presented and several informative markers associated with quantitative trait loci related to desirable attributes ofcowpea were generated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular mapping of QTLs for resistance to Fusarium wilt (race 1) and Ascochyta blight in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)

TL;DR: One major QTL, explaining 31.9 % phenotypic variation for AB resistance was identified in both field and controlled conditions and was also reported from different resistant lines in many earlier studies and are the most promising QTLs for molecular breeding separately or pyramiding for resistance to FW and AB for chickpea improvement.
