description: Globally, chickpea production is severely affected by salinity stress. Understanding the  genetic basis for salinity tolerance is important to develop salinity tolerant chickpeas. A recombinant  inbred line (RIL) population developed using parental lines ICCV 10 (salt-tolerant) and DCP  92-3 (salt-sensitive) was screened under field conditions to collect information on agronomy,  yield components, and stress tolerance indices. Genotyping data generated using Axiom®CicerSNP  array was used to construct a linkage map comprising 1856 SNP markers spanning a distance of  1106.3 cM across eight chickpea chromosomes. Extensive analysis of the phenotyping and genotyping  data identified 28 quantitative trait loci (QTLs) explaining up to 28.40% of the phenotypic variance in  the population. We identified QTL clusters on CaLG03 and CaLG06, each harboring major QTLs  for yield and yield component traits under salinity stress. The main-effect QTLs identified in these  two clusters were associated with key genes such as calcium-dependent protein kinases, histidine  kinases, cation proton antiporter, and WRKY and MYB transcription factors, which are known to  impart salinity stress tolerance in crop plants. Molecular markers/genes associated with these major  QTLs, after validation, will be useful to undertake marker-assisted breeding for developing better  varieties with salinity tolerance.
