Economically, legumes (Fabaceae) represent the second most important family of crop
plants after the grass family, Poaceae. Grain legumes account for 27% of world crop …

Most of the lentil growing countries face a certain set of abiotic and biotic stresses causing
substantial reduction in crop growth, yield, and production. Until-to date, lentil breeders have …

Genomics‐assisted breeding has become a powerful tool to develop high‐yielding climate‐
resilient varieties for adaptation to adverse environmental conditions such as heat and …

In the absence of previous molecular characterization, we assessed genetic diversity of 53
Moroccan lentil landraces including two local cultivars using simple sequence repeat (SSR) …

Low productivity of pilosae type lentils grown in South Asia is attributed to narrow genetic
base of the released cultivars which results in susceptibility to biotic and abiotic stresses. For …

Simple Summary Although lentil is not as popular as other legumes, it is a climate-resilient
legume crop because of its high protein content, nitrogen fixation, and abiotic stress …

Field pea (Pisum sativum L.) is an important cool season legume crop widely grown around
the world. This research provides a basis for selection of pea germplasm across …

Transferability of simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers was studied to increase the
availability of molecular markers for germplasm evaluation, genetic analysis and new …

Drought is one of the most important environmental factors that limit crop production. It has
been hypothesized that a limited-transpiration trait under high vapor pressure deficit (VPD) …

Lentil, as an economical source of protein, minerals and vitamins, plays important role in
nutritional security of the common man. Grown mainly in West Asia, North Africa (WANA) …
