It is used as a complement to cereal food and as snack food and sweets. Major loss in yield of chickpea is due to biotic stress (Ascochyta blight and fusarium wilt), abiotic stress (moisture stress, heat, cold) and also due to poor nutritional status of the soil and use of marginal lands. Early harvesting of chickpea as a result of reduced crop duration helps in avoiding most of the biotic and abiotic stresses which usually occur at flowering and podding time. Early developed prolific root system under water-limited environments is needed in chickpea. As molecular markers helped accelerating plant breeding in many crops. construction of intraspecitic linkage map is very important in chickpea. Hence, the present investigation was carried out with the following objectives to... date: 2001 date_type: submitted institution: Acharya N G Ranga Agricultural University department: Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding thesis_type: phd related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Inheritance+of+shoot+and+root+characters+and+molecular+markers+in+chickpea+%28Cicer+arietinum+L.%29&num=10&btnG=Search+Scholar&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&as_sdt related_url_type: author citation: Anupama, K (2001) Inheritance of shoot and root characters and molecular markers in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.).
