In the past five decades, constant research has been directed towards yield improvement in pigeonpea resulting in the deployment of several commercially acceptable cultivars in India. Though, the genesis of hybrid technology, the biggest breakthrough, enigma of stagnant productivity still remains unsolved. To sort this productivity disparity, genomic research along with conventional breeding was successfully initiated at ICRISAT. It endowed ample genomic resource providing insight in the pigeonpea genome combating production constraints in a precise and speedy manner. The availability of the draft genome sequence with a large‐scale marker resource, oriented the research towards trait mapping for flowering time, determinacy, fertility restoration, yield attributing traits and photo‐insensitivity. Defined core and mini‐core collection, still eased the pigeonpea breeding being accessible for existing genetic diversity and developing stress resistance. Modern genomic tools like next‐generation sequencing, genome‐wide selection helping in the appraisal of selection efficiency is leading towards next‐generation breeding, an awaited milestone in pigeonpea genetic enhancement. This paper emphasizes the ongoing genetic improvement in pigeonpea with an amalgam of conventional breeding as well as genomic research. 相似文献

Laboratory rearing of insects for scientific research ensures a constant supply of insects. However, laboratory colonies may
diverge genetically and/or phenotypically from wild populations due to selection pressures in their artificial environment.
This study examined how variation in a colony ofTrichoplusia ni influenced reproducibility over time of bioassays of toosendanin (a limonoid extracted from the bark ofMelia azedarach). In four of five experiments insect growth was reduced significantly (P=0.05) by the presence of toosendanin in the diet. The fifth experiment showed the same trend, but the effect was not significant.
Mean larval mass of both control and treated insects also varied greatly among experiments. The considerable variability observed
in this population highlights the importance of replicating experiments in time, and not just space, to confirm reproducibility
of treatment effects.

Chickpea is sensitive to cold conditions (<15 °C), particularly at its reproductive phase and consequently it experiences significant decrease in the seed yield. The information about the effects of cold stress on chickpea during the seed filling phase is lacking. Moreover, the underlying metabolic reasons associated with the low temperature injury are largely unknown in the crop. Hence, the present study was undertaken with the objectives: (i) to find out the possible mechanisms leading to low temperature damage during the seed filling and (ii) to investigate the relative response of the microcarpa (Desi) and the macrocarpa (Kabuli) chickpea types along with elucidation of the possible mechanisms governing the differential cold sensitivity at this stage. At the time of initiation of the seed filling (pod size ∼1 cm), a set of plants growing under warm conditions of the glasshouse (temperature: 17/28 ± 2 °C as average night and day temperature) was subjected to cold conditions of the field (2.3/11.7 ± 2 °C as average night and day temperature), while another set was maintained under warm conditions (control). The chilling conditions resulted in the increase in electrolyte leakage, the loss of chlorophyll, the decrease in sucrose content and the reduction in water status in leaves, which occurred to a greater extent in the macrocarpa type than in the microcarpa type. The total plant weight decreased to the same level in both the chickpea types, whereas the rate and duration of the seed filling, seed size, seed weight, pods per plant and harvest index decreased greatly in the macrocarpa type. The stressed seeds of both the chickpea types experienced marked reduction in the accumulation of starch, proteins, fats, crude fibre, protein fractions (albumins, globulins, prolamins and glutelins) with a larger decrease in the macrocarpa type. The accumulation of sucrose and the activity levels of the enzymes like starch synthase, sucrose synthase and invertase decreased significantly in the seeds because of the chilling, indicating impairment in sucrose import. Minerals such as calcium, phosphorous and iron as well as several amino acids (phenylalanine, tyrosine, threonine, tryptophan, valine and histidine) were lowered significantly in the stressed seeds. These components were limited to a higher extent in the macrocarpa type indicating higher cold sensitivity of this type. 相似文献

Development of Core Subset of Finger Millet Germplasm Using Geographical Origin and Data on 14 Quantitative Traits 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Finger millet [Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn.] is an important cereal food crop in Africa and South Asia. It is a hardy crop that can be grown in very diverse
environments from almost at sea level to about 2400 m.a.s.l. Finger millet has an excellent food value as its seeds contain
protein ranging from 7 to 14% and are particularly rich in methionine amino acid, iron, and calcium. Despite all these merits,
this crop has been neglected from the main stream of crop improvement research. One of the means to boost its production and
productivity is to enhance utilization of finger millet germplasm to breed superior varieties. Keeping this objective in view,
a core subset of finger millet germplasm (622 accessions) based on origin and data on 14 quantitative traits was developed
from the entire global collection of 5940 accessions held in the genebank at ICRISAT, Patancheru, India. The comparison of
means, variances, frequency distribution, Shannon-Weaver diversity index (H′) and phenotypic correlations indicated that the
core subset represents the entire collection. These tests indicated that sampling was optimal and the diversity has been captured
very well in the core subset. The correlation analysis indicated that panicle exsertion and longest finger length could be
given lower priority in the future germplasm evaluation work of finger millet. 相似文献

Agricultural implement draft requirements show considerable spatial variability due to variations in soil properties and fracturing of soil. A large sample size is necessary to obtain a representative mean draft value for a given soil type and condition because of this variability. Moreover, empirical polynomial/multi-linear regression models for implement draft are often subjected to multi-collinearity problems. Proper design of experiments can assist in the complete elimination of these multicollinearity problems. An implement test procedure has been developed which addresses the problems of soil variability and multi-collinearity. Proper choice of values for independent variables in the experimental design phase can assist in transforming these variables to an orthogonal domain which completely overcomes multi-collinearity problems. The orthogonal regression technique using transformed variables and the conventional polynomial/multi-linear regression techniques using real variables were used to analyze draft data for a moldboard plow in a Capay clay soil to illustrate advantages of the orthogonal technique. 相似文献
