traits associated with water-logging tolerance in pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan L. (Millsp.)].The formation of&#13;
aerenchyma cells, lenticels, and adventitious roots in the&#13;
tolerant genotypes were found to be associated with waterlogging tolerance in pigeonpea. The tolerant genotypes,&#13;
namely, ICP 5028, ICPH 2431, ICPL 87119, ICPH 2740, ICPL&#13;
149, ICPL 20241, and MAL15, exhibited varying responses&#13;
to hypoxic conditions. Formation of aerenchymatous cells&#13;
was common in all the water-logging tolerant genotypes.&#13;
Besides this, five tolerant genotypes (ICP 5028, ICPH 2431,&#13;
ICPL 87119, ICPH 2740 and MAL 15) developed lenticels,&#13;
while ICPL 149 and ICPL 20241 formed prominent&#13;
adventitious roots. None of these traits was present in the&#13;
susceptible genotypes. These traits developed only when&#13;
exposed to water-logging stress and facilitated oxygen&#13;
supply from stem to roots helping in respiration of the&#13;
suffering plants. Potential breeding strategies to develop&#13;
pigeonpea genotypes with enhanced levels of waterlogging&#13;
tolerance are discussed.</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc">Pigeonpea</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8061">2015</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:originInfo><mods:publisher>Indian society of genetics and plant breeding</mods:publisher></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Article</mods:genre></mods:mods>
