Integrated Weed Management in Pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.]
Uncontrolled weeds cause considerable losses in the grain yield of pigeonpea. Field experiments were conducted for seven years from 1998 to 2004 on a loamy sand soil to study the effect of weed management on weeds, growth and grain yield of pigeonpea. In some years, weed dry matter was higher than in others, due to variation in rainfall received. Two hand weedings, pendimethalin in integration ...
متن کاملGenetic Patterns of Domestication in Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) and Wild Cajanus Relatives
Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) is an annual or short-lived perennial food legume of acute regional importance, providing significant protein to the human diet in less developed regions of Asia and Africa. Due to its narrow genetic base, pigeonpea improvement is increasingly reliant on introgression of valuable traits from wild forms, a practice that would benefit from knowledge of its domestication ...

متن کاملThe flavonoid profile of pigeonpea, Cajanus cajan: a review
BACKGROUND Pigeonpea is ranked as the sixth largest grain legume produced by volume and as such is a major global food crop for livestock and human consumption. We show that pigeonpea contains a number of flavonoids and report their distribution and concentration within different parts of the plant. FINDINGS There are a total of 27 flavonoids reported in the literature representing seven flav...
متن کاملAn improved draft of the pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) genome
The first draft of the pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp. cv. Asha) genome with 511 Mbp of assembled sequence information has low genome coverage of about sixty percent. Here we present an improved version of this genome with 648.2 Mbp of assembled sequence of this popular pigeonpea variety, which is liked by the millers and has resistance to fusarium wilt and sterility mosaic diseases. With...
