"Pigeonpea is a nutritious and stress-tolerant grain legume crop of tropical and subtropical regions. Decades of\r\nbreeding efforts in pigeonpea have resulted in development of a number of high-yielding cultivars. Of late, the development\r\nof CMS-based hybrid technology has allowed the exploitation of heterosis for yield enhancement in this crop. Despite these\r\npositive developments, the actual on-farm yield of pigeonpea is still well below its potential productivity. Growing needs\r\nfor high and sustainable pigeonpea yields motivate scientists to improve the breeding efficiency to deliver a steady stream of\r\ncultivars that will provide yield benefits under both ideal and stressed environments. To achieve this objective in the shortest\r\npossible time, it is imperative that various crop breeding activities are integrated with appropriate new genomics technologies.\r\nIn this context, the last decade has seen a remarkable rise in the generation of important genomic resources such as\r\ngenome-wide markers, high-throughput genotyping assays, saturated genome maps, marker/gene–trait associations, wholegenome\r\nsequence and germplasm resequencing data. In some cases, marker/gene–trait associations are being employed in\r\npigeonpea breeding programs to improve the valuable yield and market-preferred traits. Embracing new breeding tools like\r\ngenomic selection and speed breeding is likely to improve genetic gains. Breeding high-yielding pigeonpea cultivars with key\r\nadaptation traits also calls for a renewed focus on systematic selection and utilization of targeted genetic resources. Of equal\r\nimportance is to overcome the difficulties being faced by seed industry to take the new cultivars to the doorstep of farmers."^^ . "2020-02" . . . "133" . "5" . . "SPRINGER"^^ . . .
