Millspaugh) is the sixth most important food legume grown as a field and/or backyard crop in over 82 countries across the globe. However, as a regular annual crop it is grown only in 19 countries on 4.4 million ha producing 3 million t of grains. • About 92% of the area is in developing countries.India (3.2 million ha), Myanmar (0.48 million ha), Kenya (0.15 million ha) and Malawi (0.12 million ha) are the major pigeonpea growing countries. • Primarily grown as dry seeds, and green vegetable. • Pigeonpea is a good source of vegetarian protein, soil enricher, fodder, fuel wood, and is also good for arresting soil erosion............ 2005 Conference or Workshop Item PeerReviewed application/pdf en http://oar.icrisat.org/5177/1/Genotyping%20pigeonpea%20composite%20collection%20using%20SSR%20markers%20.pdf application/pdf en http://oar.icrisat.org/5177/7/Genotyping_pigeonpea_.pdf Upadhyaya, H D (2005) Genotyping pigeonpea composite collection using SSR markers.
