Chickpea is an important grain legume used as a rich source of protein in human diet. The narrow genetic diversity and limited availability of genomic resources are the major constraints in implementing breeding strategies and biotechnological interventions for genetic enhancement of chickpea. We developed an integrated Chickpea Transcriptome Database (CTDB), which provides the comprehensive we...

Rhizobium pusense strain NRCPB10T was isolated from rhizosphere soil of chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.). Based upon the draft genome sequence, the genome is 5.28 Mb and encodes 5,064 proteins.
