“…Reproductive stages of grain legumes that are adapted to cold environment, such as chickpea, lentil, pea and faba bean, face warmer conditions under late‐sown condition, which results in substantial reduction in seed setting and seed weight (Gaur et al., ; Jha, Chaturvedi et al., ; Saxena, Saxena, & Mohammed, ; Siddique, Jettner, Regan, & Loss, ). The serious impacts of the HS in staple crops such as rice (Manigbas & Sebastian, ; Tian, Tao, Jing, Zhang, & Tao, ), wheat (Easterling et al., ; You, Rosegrant, Wood, & Sun, ), maize (Deryng et al., ; Lobell & Field, ; Lobell et al., ) have been thoroughly reviewed by various researchers (Barnabas, Jager, & Feher, ; Bita & Gerats, ; Hasanuzzaman, Nahar, Alam, Roychowdhury, & Fujita, ; Jha, Bohra, & Singh, ; Kaushal, Bhandari, Siddique, & Nayyar, ). Like cereal crops, HS in grain legumes is reported to create impairments in key physiological pathways, viz.…”
