We identified 82489 high-quality genome-wide SNPs from 93 wild and cultivated Cicer accessions through integrated reference genome- and de novo-based GBS assays. High intra- and inter-specific polymorphic potential (66-85%) and broader natural allelic diversity (6-64%) detected by genome-wide SNPs among accessions signify their efficacy for monitoring introgression and transferring target trait...

The aim of this study was to isolate, identify and characterize ascochyta blight pathogens from Cicer judaicum , a wild annual Cicer species which grows in Israel and other Mediterranean countries in sympatric distribution with legume crops, and determine their virulence and aggressiveness to other wild and domesticated legumes. Native C. judaicum plants exhibited symptoms resembling ascochyta ...

We report the complete genome sequence of Mesorhizobium ciceri strain CC1192, an efficient nitrogen-fixing microsymbiont of Cicer arietinum (chickpea). The genome consists of 6.94 Mb distributed between a single chromosome (6.29 Mb) and a plasmid (0.65 Mb).

The aim of the present paper is to investigate the half-spaces in the convexity structure of all quasiorders on a given set and to use them in an alternative approach to classical order dimension. The main result states that linear orders can almost always be replaced by half-space quasiorders in the definition of the dimension of a partially ordered set.

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.

Investigating the germination characteristics of Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) in response to titanium dioxide nanoparticles priming and drought stress

Various pulses are a good source of β-Amylase and this enzyme could find promising application of hydrolysis of starch. Hydrolysis of starch by β-amylases has couple of food and pharmaceutical applications. In the present work, β-Amylases from a variety of germinating pulses (Vigna radiata, Cicer arietinum (black), Vigna mungo, Glycine max, Cicer arietinum(white) were extracted and characterize...
