Millsp.]: Distributions, ex situ conservation status, and potential genetic resources for abiotic stress tolerance"^^ . "Pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] is a versatile, stress-tolerant, and nutritious grain legume, possessing\r\ntraits of value for enhancing the sustainability of dry sub-tropical and tropical agricultural systems.\r\nThe use of crop wild relatives (CWR) in pigeonpea breeding has been successful in providing important\r\nresistance, quality, and breeding efficiency traits to the crop. Current breeding objectives for pigeonpea\r\ninclude increasing its tolerance to abiotic stresses, including heat, cold, drought, and waterlogging. Here\r\nwe assess the potential for pigeonpea CWR to be further employed in crop improvement by compiling\r\nwild species occurrence and ex situ conservation information, producing geographic distribution models\r\nfor the species, identifying gaps in the comprehensiveness of current germplasm collections, and using\r\necogeographic information to identify CWR populations with the potential to contribute agronomic traits\r\nof priority to breeders. The fifteen prioritized relatives of pigeonpea generally occur in South and Southeast\r\nAsia to Australia, with the highest concentrations of species in southern India and northern Australia.\r\nThese taxa differ considerably among themselves and in comparison to the crop in their adaptations to\r\ntemperature, precipitation and edaphic conditions. We find that these wild genetic resources are broadly\r\nunder-represented in ex situ conservation systems, with 80% of species assessed as high priority for further\r\ncollecting, thus their availability to plant breeders is insufficient. We identify species and highlight\r\ngeographic locations for further collecting in order to improve the completeness of pigeonpea CWR germplasm\r\ncollections, with particular emphasis on potential traits for abiotic stress tolerance."^^ .
