This book was released on 2017 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cowpea is a multi-purpose leguminous crop, and its importance as a resource to address food security issues plus production constraints imposed by biotic and abiotic stresses has attracted significant research. Aligned with these efforts, this dissertation describes the resistance found among 53 cowpea genotypes from Mozambique, to root-knot nematodes (RKN) (Meloidogyne incognita and M. javanica) and Fusarium wilt (FW) [Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. tracheiphilum (Fot races 3 and 4)]. In the first chapter, an overview is provided about the significance of cowpea as a food security resource, constraints limiting production and research progress and status of cowpea production in Mozambique. Also, available genetic and genomic resources and their utility for cowpea breeding are described. In addition, the concept of plant resistance, types of resistance, mechanisms of plant resistance, disease quantification to RKN and FW, the genetic control of some cowpea diseases and practical example of successful cowpea breeding for diseases is discussed. The second chapter, describes a series of experiments that led to the discovery of seven cowpea genotypes with broad-based resistance to RKN using nematode reproduction and root-galling phenotypes. The effectiveness of resistance in FN-2-9-04 relative to virulence levels in RKN isolates and the relationship between resistances to different RKN isolates is described. In the third chapter, the genomic architecture of resistance to RKN in FN-2-9-04 is determined through a series of genetic analyses and quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping. Two QTLs on chromosomes 1 and 4 were associated with the strong RKN resistance in FN-2-9-04. The fourth chapter describes the resistance found among the test cowpeas to Fot3 and Fot4 based on wilting and vascular discoloration phenotypes. The virulence profiles of Fot3 and Fot4 are compared, and the effectiveness of FW resistance in FN-2-9-04 and the relationship between wilting and vascular discoloration responses are discussed. In the fifth chapter, the genomic architecture of resistance to Fot4 in FN-2-9-04, determined through a series genetic analyses and QTL mapping, is described. Two QTL on chromosomes 3 and 8 were associated with Fot4 resistance in FN-2-9-04. These novel sources of nematode and Fusarium resistance are important for cowpea genetic improvement.

Download or read book Genetics Physiology and Cultivation of Moth Bean Cowpea and Horse Gram written by Rakesh Pathak and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-26 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This authored book gives insight into the morphology, physiology, genetics, plant protection and biotechnology of three important arid legumes, viz., moth bean, cowpea and horse gram. There are seven chapters for each crop that provide in-depth information on cultivation, genetic improvement, plant protection measures, management of physiological and abiotic stresses along with related genetic markers and biotechnological advances pertaining to these legumes. The chapters present research findings and brief reviews concerning the advances made in the improvement of these legumes.Legumes are utilized as pulses or grains aiding as an important source of protein for both human and animal consumption and also provide raw materials to the food and feed industries. They are also valuable for soil building, improving soil quality and biological nitrogen fixation. Physiology and genetics provide an inimitable source of information on the distinct aspects of basic and applied legume research for general readers, students, academicians and researchers. Arid legumes are crops characterized by inherent features and capabilities to withstand adverse and harsh climatic conditions, significantly replenish the soil, as well as provide protein and micronutrients. Adaptability to several stresses including drought makes them key to agriculture in areas receiving scanty rainfall. This comprehensive book disseminates significant information on the genetic diversity, cultivation, manipulation through mutagenic techniques, molecular biology and other breeding techniques. The book, therefore, is of importance to teachers, researchers and policymakers who are interested to acquire knowledge about moth bean, cowpea and horse gram. It also serves as an additional reading material for MSc and PhD students of agriculture and environmental sciences. The book is also useful to national and international agricultural scientists and policymakers.
