    Scope for genetic manipulation of mineral acquisition in chickpea

    Nutrient acquisition in chickpea needs to be efficient, because it is mainly grown as a post-rainy season, rainfed crop, and generally on soils inferior in physical characteristics and poor in fertility. Nutri...

    Screening techniques and sources of tolerance to salinity and mineral nutrient imbalances in cool season food legumes

    A large global land area is affected by saline, alkali (sodic), and acid soil conditions. Cool season food legumes are important crops in many countries with such adverse soils. Tolerant genotypes have been id...
