Susceptibility to drought stress has restrained chickpea productivity at a global level, and the
development of drought-tolerant varieties is essential to maintain its productivity. Therefore …

Drought is a major abiotic stress that drastically reduces chickpea yields. The present study
was aimed to identify drought-responsive traits in chickpea by screening a recombinant …

In chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), terminal drought is a major constraint that limits seed yield.
It is important to establish the relative importance many of these drought-related traits for …

A field experiment with two sets, each comprising 13 chickpea genotypes with three
replications was carried out during Rabi 2012-2013 in stress and non-stress conditions. The …

Background Chickpea is one of the major legume crops being cultivated in the arid and semi-
arid regions of Pakistan. It is mainly grown on the marginal areas where, terminal drought …

Drought is one on the most important factors limiting the productivity of spring CHICKPEA in
drylands of Iran. Sixty genotypes of CHICKPEA from ICARDA's germplasm accessions, as …

Chickpea production is seriously hampered by drought stress, which could be a great threat
in the future for food security in developing countries. The present investigation aimed to …

Chickpea is widely grown in rainfed areas of developing countries because of its nutritional
abundance and adaptability. To overcome the environmental effect of drought on yield, a …

This study was planned with the purpose of evaluating the drought tolerance of advanced
breeding lines of chickpea in natural field conditions. Two methods were employed to …

Crop drought tolerance improvement is one of the most challenging objectives of plant
breeding programs. Developing an efficient screening technology and access to genetic …
