Analysis of Genetic Diversity in Chickpea Employing ISSR Markers | Chapter 8 | Cutting-edge Research in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 13

To detect genetic variations, inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers are commonly utilised. ISSR markers were used to determine genetic diversity in 13 chickpea accessions, both cultivated and wild. The pentanucleotide repeat primer UBC-879 generated the best amplification patterns of all the anchored ISSR primers tested. In total, 150 bands were amplified in the 100-2000

Investigation of Avoidable Losses Due to Effect of Pod Borer, Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) in Chickpea | Chapter 8 | Cutting-edge Research in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 3

The purpose of this study is to quantify losses due to the major chickpea pest. Borer pod, Armigera helicoverpa. Chickpea is one of the most important crops for pulses. Considering the financial value Protective measures for this crop need to be taken well in advance to avoid damage to the pod due to Borer pod.
