“…In Pakistan, the genus is represented by 14 species (Nasir & Ali, ). The genus Cicer includes about 43 species disseminated worldwide in Central and Western Asia, Europe, and isolated regions of North, Northwest Africa (Van der Maesen, ). In Pakistan, it is represented by four species.…”

“…It has also achieved a significant position in the modern synthetic systems of angiosperms (Dahlgren, ). Previous data was generally focused on intrageneric seed coat disparities (Juan, Pastor, & Fernandez, ; Segarra & Mateu, ) or reporting variations between closely related taxa (Al‐Gohary & Mohamed, ; Hasan & Lester, ; Karam, ; Abdel Khalik & Al‐Gohary, ; Koul et al, ; Sahai, Kaur, & Pal, ; Van der Maesen, ).…”

Seed micromorphology of 12 species of tribe Vicieae (Papilionoidae) representing five genera were examined using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The different seed types were described, illustrated, compared, and their taxonomic importance is discussed. Seeds exhibit great diversity in ultrastructure and a variety of novel morphological features have been determined among and within genera of the tribe. Seeds were characterized by oval to round shape, ovate to oblong outline and striate to papillate ornamentation. Radiate and wavy cell pattern has been observed as a characteristic exomorphological feature. In Vicia sativa, testa cells superficially seem to form peltate hairs. As a result, seed micromorphology with few exceptions showed variation and its taxonomic value was significant in distinguishing taxa at species level. The disparity in shape and density of papillae or protuberances and alignment of testa cells, may possibly give further insight at intraspecific level within tribe. The findings also illustrated that the use of SEM in seed morphology can reveal hidden morphological affinities among species and showed potential in delimitation of Vicieae members generally at tribe, genus, and particularly at species level.

“…Today, the genus Cicer L. contains a total of 49 taxa, nine of which are annuals and 40 of which are perennials (van der Maesen, Maxted, Javadi, Coles, & Davies, ; Donmez, ; Ozturk, ; Toker, Uzun, Ceylan, & Ikten, ), while only Cicer arietinum L. is under cultivation throughout the world. The cultivated chickpea is one of the earliest known leguminous crops in agriculture, domesticated in the Fertile Crescent region about 11,000 years ago (Zohary & Hopf, ).…”

Gene effects of Cicer reticulatum on qualitative and quantitative traits in the cultivated chickpea

et al. 2017

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The gene effects of Cicer reticulatum on both double‐podding as qualitative traits and yield criteria as quantitative traits in interspecific hybridization with cultivated chickpea (Cicer arietinum) have not yet been elucidated, despite the easy acquisition of hybrid progeny between two species. This study sought to answer three questions concerning qualitative and quantitative traits in reciprocal crosses between C. arietinum and C. reticulatum. (i) Is there a similarity in the gene effects of flower colour, pigmentation and double‐podded traits in reciprocal interspecific crosses? (ii) What are the expressivity and penetrance of the double‐podded trait in interspecific crosses? (iii) Which heterosis predicts the occurrence and the extent of transgressive variation? The materials for this study were F1, F2 and F3 progeny derived from a reciprocal cross between C. arietinum and C. reticulatum. As qualitative traits, purple flower colour, pigmentation and single‐podded traits in C. reticulatum were governed by a dominant single gene. Purple flower colour and pigmentation were detected to be linked traits as all progeny had the same phenotypes. As quantitative traits, yield criteria in progeny which were double‐podded had higher values than the single‐podded counterparts. Expressivity and penetrance of the double‐podding trait were superior in progeny derived from C. reticulatum × C. arietinum. The results showed that fruitful heterosis was more useful than residual heterosis in F3 as residual heterosis was mostly negative and fruitful heterosis was suggested in self‐pollinated species such as chickpea that lacks inbreeding depression. Interspecific transgression was significant with respect to chickpea improvement because it represented a potential source of novel genetic variation.

“…The monographer of the genus Cicer, van der Maesen (1972van der Maesen ( , 1987 also as Davis cited an abbreviated label, as it was cited in the protologue, and indicated that the "holotype" is kept in G. Later, van der Maesen (1979) did not indicate where the "typus" was deposited, and listed BM, C, G, K, P and WU herbaria which contain syntypes. In a later publication, van der Maesen et al (2007) indicated that the "holotype" is kept in G. However, none of the specimens in the combined Geneva herbaria can be regarded as the holotype (McNeill 2014, Turland et al 2018.1). Van der Maesen (1987) indicated that the holotype of C. glutinosum is kept in B and the isotype in P. However, as confirmed by R. Vogt (pers.…”

Cicer Linnaeus (1753: 738), as currently established, includes about 50 species distributed from north to south from the Altai Mountains (C Asia) to the East African Rift (E Africa), and from west to east from the Canary Islands (W Africa) to the upper Irtysh River in Dzungaria (C Asia) (van der Maesen et al. 2007, Dönmez 2011, Toker et al. 2021). In the course of our revisionary work on this genus for Caucasian flora conspectus (Takhtajan 2003), we found the name C. anatolicum Alefeld (1861: 349) and its synonym C. glutinosum Alefeld (1861: 349), also the name C. minutum Boiss. & Hohen. in Boissier (1849: 130) that warrant lectotypification in accordance with the Shenzhen Code (Turland et al. 2018). The second-step lectotypification is made for C. anatolicum and C. minutum, while the lectotype is selected for C. glutinosum based on the analysis of their protologues and original herbarium material deposited in C, BM, G, LE, M, MO, P and WAG. Herbarium acronyms mentioned here follow Thiers (2021-onward).
