Exploring Chickpea Germplasm Diversity for Broadening the Genetic Base Utilizing Genomic Resourses por Singh, Rajesh, Singh, Charul, A, Ambika, Chandana, B. S., K. Mahto, Rohit, Patial, Ranjana, Gupta, Astha, Gahlaut, Vijay, G, Gayacharan, Hamwieh, Aladdin, Upadhyaya, Hari D., Kumar, Rajendra

“…Despite these advantages, legumes are far behind cereals in terms of genetic improvement mainly due to far less effort, the bottlenecks of the narrow genetic base, and several biotic and abiotic factors in the scenario of changing climatic conditions. Measures are now called for beyond conventional breeding practices to strategically broadening of narrow genetic base utilizing chickpea wild relatives and improvement of cultivars through advanced breeding approaches with a focus on high yield productivity, biotic and abiotic stresses including climate resilience, and enhanced nutritional values. …”
