Chickpea
•Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi
•Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth, Rahuri (Maharashtra)
•NBPGR, New Delhi
Lentil
•Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi
•RMVSKVV, Sehore (Madhya Pradesh)
•NBPGR, New Delhi
Objectives
•
Identification of appropriate germplasm from ICARDA
gene bank (landraces & wild species) for resistance to keys
biotic and abiotic stresses.
•
Synthesis of new gene-pool with higher frequency of useful
genes from exotic landraces & wild progenitors of NearEast origin.
•
Evaluation of new recombinants (pre-breeding lines) at
farmers’ fields.
•
Identification of high yielding cultivars through multilocation testing for various production environments
Objectives Cont…
Capacity building
• For enhanced utilization of PGR and adoption of
frontier technologies in crop improvement.
• Empowerment of farmers for participatory
breeding.
Targeted Traits
Kabuli chickpea
Terminal heat & drought tolerance, and resistance to
Ascochyta blight
Lentil
Earliness, tolerance to heat and drought, resistance to
Stemphylium blight, root rots
Expected Outputs
• Development of varieties for adaptation to changing
climate (mitigating soil moisture stress and temperature
extremities)
• New set of modern cultivars will be available for
evaluation at farmers’ field/multilocation evaluation for
their possible release
• Wide range of varieties will be available to farmers
• Appropriate cultivars will be selected by farmers for use in
various cropping systems. Seeds of these cultivars would
be multiplied and supplied to farmers
An example: economic return
Due to high temperature in central India the
estimated loss (>10%) in chickpea production
(2009-10).
The varieties which are likely to be developed
through this project will help in reducing this
damage. Even 1% saving will value about Rs.
5.00 crores. More than this would be saving in
lentil too.
Budget: Head-wise tentative breakup estimates

•
Use of of appropriate germplasm/genes (primitive
landraces & wild species) for synthesis of new gene
pool with higher frequency of useful genes to
address climatic variations/new diseases and to
fulfill farmers' demands.
•
Evaluation of new recombinants (pre-breeding
lines) under targeted agro-ecological conditions,
and in farmers’ fields.
•
Identification of high yielding, stress tolerant
genotypes through multilocation/multi-season
testing for the development of cultivars for
commercial cultivation.
Germplasm Utilization
Exploration of exotic germplasm and landraces of wheat and barley
from West Asia and growing in India for phenotypic characterization in
response to climate change (heat and water-use efficiency)
Genome mapping and synteny of the genes sequenced from wheat and
barley could be assigned to encoding abiotic stress tolerance and can be
utilized for pulses improvement.
New useful genes which have not been exploited in Indian
programs will be available in Indian gene-bank for longterm use
Stabilizing yield and higher productivity under biotic and
abiotic stress environments (terminal heat and drought
stresses)
Seeds of appropriate cultivars selected by farmers for use
in various cropping systems would be available for
multiplication and distribution
