Evaluating chickpea genotypes for abiotic stress tolerance
Duarte, I; Silva, LL; Simões, N; Imtiaz, M; Lourenço, E; Chaves, MMBeing a leguminous crop chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is important for the establishment of sustainable and economically viable farming systems. Chickpea is grown and consumed across five continents, making this crop more important in international markets than other food legumes. Adaptation trials of 15 accessions of chickpea, 13 from the ICARDA collection and 2 from the Portuguese national catalogue, took pla...
Screening chickpea resistance to water deficits: the yield perspective.
Duarte, Isabel M.; Silva, Luis Leopoldo; Simões, Nuno; Imtiaz, M.; Pinheiro, Carla; Lourenço, Maria Ermelinda V.L.; Chaves, Maria ManuelaScreening a wide range of germplasm from our major crops (including legumes) to search for genetic variation of traits involved in stress resistance is extremely relevant in the context of predicted increase in aridity in several areas of the world, including the Mediterranean (1,2). On the other hand, the keystone of ‘crop drought resistance’ relies on the effective use by the crop of a limiting water supply (...
